In marriages, there are divergent expectations. The woman expects the man to change. The man expects the woman to never change.

To be committed to each other beyond success and failure, health and ill-health, life and death – that’s what makes you a family.

No relationship is absolute - it is always variable. You have to conduct it well on a daily basis.

When human beings become material for you that you can use and dump, you will pay the price.

Do not underestimate negative relationships. You have a deep bond with those you hate, fear, or envy.
