"Maybe marriage, like life, isn't only about the big moments, whether they be good or bad. Maybe it's all the small things—like being guided slowly forward, surely, day after day—that stretches out to strengthen even the most tenuous bond."
"You know, when it works, love is pretty amazing. It's not overrated. There's a reason for all those songs."
