Most marriages don't add two people together. They subtract one from the other.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I only intended to be married one time. But marriages are made; they don't just happen. It takes two.
The husband and wife are one, and that one is the husband.
But whether a couple is a man and a woman has everything to do with the meaning of marriage.
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
When two people marry they become in the eyes of the law one person, and that one person is the husband.
Marriage is an institution and that's where a couple finish up.
I think if two people love each other, they should be able to get married. That's pretty much simple.
I think every person deserves two marriages, because you may not get the first one right. You really never knew. That's why divorce is so big. We all want it to last, but that's not always the reality of it.
I've never quite understood why people marry; marriage is just an invented structure.
Marriage resembles a pair of shears, so joined that they cannot be separated; often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing anyone who comes between them.
