For every man there is a price to pay for the desires he gratifies beyond due measure. Life shrinks and shrivels like the skin of the wild ass in Balzac’s great novel. “This is thy life. With each wish 1 must shrink even as thy own days” There conies a moment when the talisman is as tiny and as fragile as the petal of a periwinkle. —James Douglas.
