Of Human Bondage

As mysterious, various, and odd as human sexuality are human affections.

Some people feel about their pets the way others feel about their children.

And vice versa.

And in no way does this diminish the great truth that satisfactory intimate relationships are key elements in human happiness, for most of us.

Nor the strength of desire or attachment.

Still, it's a rare man who would die for his horse.

And most of us would think him extravagant.
