We all have a childhood dream that when there is love, everything goes like silk, but the reality is that marriage requires a lot of compromise. – Raquel Welch
In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again…. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring. – Enid Bagnold, Autobiography, 1969
