Zitat des Tages über Ehe / Wedlock:
The chain of wedlock is so heavy that it takes two to carry it - and sometimes three.
The trouble with wedlock is that there's not enough wed and too much lock.
A person's character is but half formed till after wedlock.
I don't want to suggest that matrimony was necessarily a tragic affair - some of our neighbours' marriages seemed quite functional, if somewhat routine; nevertheless, in the workaday world, it is wedlock that is most likely to offer the occasion for life-threatening disappointment.
More than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born out of wedlock. That means absent fathers.
Most single moms are very poor, uneducated, can't get a job, and if it weren't for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death and never have health care. And that's the story that we're not seeing, and it's unfortunate that we glorify and glamorize the idea of out of children wedlock.
Let's remember the children who come from broken homes, surrounded by crime, drugs, temptation, their peers having babies out of wedlock, but who still manage to get a good education despite the many obstacles they face every day.
Unions in wedlock are perverted by the victory of shameless passion that masters the female among men and beasts.
They dream in courtship, but in wedlock wake.
