D. H. Lawrence Quotes, Sex Quotes, Loss Quotes

The body remains, in a sense, a corpse, after the act of self-abuse. There is no change, only deadening. There is what we call dead loss. And this is not the case in any act of sexual intercourse between two people. Two people may destroy one another in sex. But they cannot just produce the null effect of masturbation.

However, the predictability coupled with a short holding period produces quite decent average annual rates of return after allowance for the occasional substantial loss.
