“How many married couples who stay married until one of them dies can honestly say that they weren't terribly bored at times?”

“How many can honestly say that they never fell in love with someone else along the way, someone they didn't pursue because they'd made a vow to stay with their spouse? How many would say they regretted that choice?”

“When you're in love, you can handle almost anything as long as you can spend some time with your loved one.”

“We're friends. Remember, we have the right to bore each other every now and then.”

“Just remember: Forever is relative. What one person sees as three years can feel like a lifetime to another.”

“Maybe I was unhappy for a lot of my marriage but didnt' realize it...She who is busy has no time to realize unhappiness. Now I have to wonder: why was I so busy in the first place? To fill a void I suspected was there but was afraid to acknowledge?”

“Defending yourself is not the same as offending your enemy. Watch what you say.”
