There is no greater excitement than to support an intellectual wife and have her support you. Marriage is a partnership in which each inspires the other, and brings fruition to both of you. – Millicent Carey McIntosh
What we need are not prohibitory marriage laws, but a reformed society, an educated public opinion which will teach individual duty in these matters. – Alfred Russel Wallace

Nakedness is uncomely, as well in mind as body, and it addeth no small reverence to mens manners and actions if they be not altogether open. Therefore set it down: That a habit of secrecy is both politic and moral. – Francis Bacon
