#7128In Christianity, a man may have only one wife. This is called Monotony.
#7129In marriage, as in war, it is permitted to take every advantage of the enemy.
#7130In olden times sacrifices were made at the altar -- a practice which is
still continued.
-- Helen Rowland
#7131In the midst of one of the wildest parties he'd ever been to, the young man
noticed a very prim and pretty girl sitting quietly apart from the rest of
the revelers. Approaching her, he introduced himself and, after some quiet
conversation, said, "I'm afraid you and I don't really fit in with this
jaded group. Why don't I take you home?""
"Fine," said the girl, smiling up at him demurely. "Where do you live?"
#7132Insanity is considered a ground for divorce, though by the very same
token it is the shortest detour to marriage.
-- Wilson Mizner
#7133Is a wedding successful if it comes off without a hitch?
#7134Is not marriage an open question, when it is alleged, from the
beginning of the world, that such as are in the institution wish to get
out, and such as are out wish to get in?
-- Ralph Emerson
#7135Isn't it ironic that many men spend a great part of their lives
avoiding marriage while single-mindedly pursuing those things that
would make them better prospects?
#7136It [marriage] happens as with cages: the birds without despair
to get in, and those within despair of getting out.
-- Michel Eyquem de Montaigne
#7137It did not occur to me that my being with two men continuously would
interest anyone or arouse anyone's misgivings. I asked for an invitation
for Heinrich too, as often as it seemed possible, when Paulus and I were
invited to a social gathering. I felt the set of rules others lived by
was irrelevant. My childhood attitude -- every attempt to adjust is
hopeless and you might just as well follow your own attitudes -- must have
carried me.
-- Hannah Tillich, "From Time to Time"
