    —John Updike (b. 1932)

    “What is any respectable girl brought up to do but to catch some rich man’s fancy and get the benefit of his money by marrying him?—as if a marriage ceremony could make any difference in the right or wrong of the thing!”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “Let me not to the marriage of true minds
    Admit impediments. Love is not love
