“The other exception to the rule regards dealings with masochists. A masochist derives pleasure from being hurt; so denying the masochist his pleasure through-pain hurts him just as much as actual physical pain hurts the non masochist.

If a person wants to be hurt and enjoys suffering, then there is no reason not to indulge him in hiswont.”
