Quotations
Marriage
Marriage has no guarantees. If that's what you're looking for, go live with a car battery.
-Erma Bombeck

Don’t be jealous if I spend 50% of my time with you and 50% of my time with others, because you get 100% of 50%, while all the others have to share that other 50%. This is the speech I’ve prepared to tell my wife in the future, when I’m spending a majority minus one percent of my time with my clones.
-Jarod Kintz "This Book Has No Title"
No marriage stays in the same pattern forever. It is both the best feature of marriage and the worst that it inevitably changes.
