Masturbation is a democratic pleasure, practiced by rich and poor, young and old, married and single.
The rich are never as possessed by their riches as the poor are by their poverty.
The rich feel full of merit.
The rich are happier than we are, and should be.
The poor live slow and hard; the rich, fast and easy. The rest of us shuffle along as we may.
Old among the young, poor among the rich, I adopt an air of indefinable superiority.
