Marriage is not a noun; it's a verb.
It isn't something you get. It's something you do.
It's the way you love your partner every day.

- Barbara De Angelis

Strike an average between what a woman thinks of her husband a month before she marries him and what she thinks of him a year afterward, and you will have the truth about him.

-H.L. Mencken, A Book of Burlesques, 1916 -
