Famous quotes containing the words open and/or marriages:
“Youre gonna take the rap and play along. Youre gonna make every exact move I tell you. If you dont, Ill kill you. And Ill promise you one thing, it wont be quick. Ill break you first. You wont be able to answer a telephone or open a door without thinking This is it. And when it comes, it still wont be quick. And it wont be pretty.”
—Geoffrey Homes (19021977)
“The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
