Spinsters

Posted by PJ under independent, marriage, quote of the day, single, women

Random quote of the day:

“Don’t laugh at the spinsters, dear girls, for often very tender, tragic romances are hidden away in the hearts that beat so quietly under the sober gowns, and many silent sacrifices of youth, health, ambition, love itself, make the faded faces beautiful in God’s sight. Even the sad, sour sisters should be kindly dealt with, because they have missed the sweetest part of life, if for no other reason.”

—Louisa May Alcott, Little Women

Random quote of the day:

“As soon as you say ‘I do,’ you will discover that marriage is like a car. Yeah, both of you might be sitting in the front seat, but only one of you is driving. Most marriages are more like a motorcycle than a car. Somebody has to sit in the back, and you have to yell to be heard.”

—Wanda Sykes, Yeah, I Said It

Marriage

Posted by PJ under love, marriage, quote of the day

Random quote of the day:

“Love one another, but make not a bond
of love:
     Let it rather be a moving sea between
     the shores of your souls.
     Fill each other’s cup but drink not from
     one cup.
     Give one another of your bread but eat
     not from the same loaf.
     Sing and dance together and be joyous,
     but let each one of you be alone,
     Even as the strings of a lute are alone
     though they quiver with the same music.

—Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
