A situation:

Who would deny a certain charm to the life of the idler, a trifle biase perhaps, but enjoying at his leisure everything that can make passivity sweet: a seraglio of beautiful women, witty and sophisticated friends, subtle drugs and exotic meals. This is a man whose desire is not so much to change life as to seek refuge in the greatest attractions it has to offer: a libertine in the grand style.[1]
