"There are happy marriages. Where affection is reciprocal and sincere, and minds are harmonious, marriage must be happy."
"It is never wholly happy. Two people can never literally be as one: there is, perhaps, a possibility of content under peculiar circumstances, such as are seldom combined; but it is as well not to run the risk: you may make fatal mistakes. Be satisfied, my dear: let all the single be satisfied with their freedom."
Charlotte Bronte, Shirley
