"Marriage is like a temple resting on..." - Quote by Khalil Gibran

“Always you have been told that work is a curse and labor a misfortune. But I say to you that when you work you fulfill a part of earth's furthest dream, assigned to you when that dream was born.”

“You see but your shadow when you turn your back to the sun.”

“If winter should say, 'Spring is in my heart,' who would believe winter?”

“I consider a country-dance as an emblem of marriage. Fidelity and complaisance are the principle duties of both; and those men who do not choose to dance or to marry them selves, have no business with the partners or wives of the neighbors.”

“Tell your wife often how terrific she looks.”

“Marry an outdoors woman. Then if you throw her out into the yard on a cold night, she can still survive.”

“Do married people live longer than single people or does it just SEEM longer?”

“his mysterious resources had awakened in her a curiosity that was difficult to resist, but she had never imagined that curiosity was one of the many masks of love.”

“The truest comparison we can make of love is to liken it to a fever; we have no more power over the one than the other, either as to its violence or duration.”
