You know, my friends, with what a brave carouse I made a Second Marriage in my house favored old barren reason from my bed, and took the daughter of the vine to spouse.

Our state cannot be sever’d; we are one,
One flesh; to lose thee were to lose myself.

Hail wedded love, mysterious law, true source
Of human offspring.

Marriage: that I call the will of two to create the one who is more than those who created it.

Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut, and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.
