I am, I must confess, suspicious of those who denounce others for having ''too much'' sex. At what point does a ''healthy'' amount become ''too much'' There are, of course, those who suffer because their desire for sex has become compulsive in their case the drive (loneliness, guilt) is at fault, not the activity as such. When ''morality'' is discussed I invariably discover, halfway into the conversation, that what is meant are not the great ethical questions but the rather dreary business of sexual habit, which to my mind is an aesthetic rather than an ethical issue.

Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being.
