Quote by Elizabeth Gilbert
I think its unfortunate that there exists only one path in America

I think its unfortunate that there exists only one path in America to complete social legitimacy, and that is marriage. I think, for instance, that it would be far easier for Americans to elect a black president or a female president than an unmarried president. – Elizabeth Gilbert
