Summary

This quote suggests that individuals often have a tendency to overestimate how much others think about them or judge them. It highlights the fact that people typically have their own concerns and preoccupations, which means they are not constantly focused on analyzing or critiquing others. Once one understands this, they can free themselves from worrying excessively about other people's opinions and judgments, leading to a lesser concern for what others think and a greater focus on their own personal growth and happiness.

Of all the various kinds of sexual intercourse, this has the least to recommend it. As an amusement, it is too fleeting; as an occupation, it is too wearing; as a public exhibition, there is no money in it. It is unsuited to the drawing room, and in the most cultured society it has long been banished from the social board. It has at last, in our day of progress and improvement, been degraded to brotherhood with flatulence. Among the best bred, these two arts are now indulged only in private--- though by consent of the whole company, when only males are present, it is still permissible, in good society, to remove the embargo on the fundamental sigh.
