In a sacred ground like marriage you find yourself out of it at certain times for reasons unknown that can be destructive. There could be a demon that kind of comes out and overtakes you.

I never thought my marriage could be stronger or I could be closer to Bill. We prayed on our own but now we prayed together and you'll never know how much that means until you do it.

Marriage is a lot of things - a source of love security the joy of children but it's also an interpersonal battlefield and it's not hard to see why: Take two disparate people toss them together in often-confined quarters add the stresses of money and kids - now lather rinse repeat for the rest of your natural life. What could go wrong?

I can look back at different times in my life when I felt I could not find my way out of whatever it was. I'm not necessarily talking about marriage but I wanted to pack it in. I wanted to disappear. A lot of that has to do with being in the public eye.

For me working on the marriage and not making the easy choice of cheating was something that I could not do.

I couldn't bear a marriage in which one partner hinges on the other.

There was a time in the marriage when I could no longer look at myself in a mirror couldn't feel I was a nice person. A bad relationship can do that can make you doubt everything good you ever felt about yourself.

Sobering up was responsible for breaking up my marriage. That's what it couldn't stand.

It was a perfect marriage. She didn't want to and he couldn't.

I could be wrong but I think heterosexual marriage is threatened more by heterosexuals. I don't know why gay marriage challenges my marriage in any way.

Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of husbands. Remember all men would be tyrants if they could.

I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for religion - I have shuddered at it. I shudder no more - I could be martyred for my religion - Love is my religion - I could die for that.

I might get drunk one day and fall in love or fall over a hooker outside and I would have consummated a relationship that I couldn't necessarily believe in.

There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we'd all love one another.

With our love we could save the world.

If you could only love enough you could be the most powerful person in the world.

Love is my religion - I could die for it.

Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible - it cannot be seen or measured yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment and offer you more joy than any material possession could.

The struggle of my life created empathy - I could relate to pain being abandoned having people not love me.

People disparage knowing and the intellectual life and urge doing. I am content with knowing if only I could know.
