Quotations
Marriage
If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.
-Michel De Montaigne

-Shannon L. Alder

"Anne of the Island"
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"
To complain that I could only be married once was like complaining that I had only been born once.
