Marriage Quotes
"Here in America marriage as an institution is confused with marriage as a concept. Marriage as an institution comes with definitions and expectations that some partners never discuss with each other. Thus, what starts out as an unscripted adventure becomes a very contrived pursuit of a certain type of lifestyle. Marriage as a concept is a real sweet idea, with two people looking at each other and saying, 'I really think everything I want to do on this earth I'll be able to do better with you as a partner,' which is a step beyond, 'Why don't we start living together for life?'"
- Zaron W. Burnett, Jr. (from the book, "A Love Supreme: Real-Life Stories of Black Love" by TaRessa and Calvin Stovall)
