Never ever discount the idea of marriage. Sure, someone might tell you that marriage is just a piece of paper. Well, so is money, and what’s more life-affirming than cold, hard cash?

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.
