William Cowper

It is a mistake to consider marriage merely as a scheme of happiness. It is also a bond of service. It is the most ancient form of that social ministration which God has ordained for all human beings, and which is symbolized by all the relations of nature.

By which means both would be more forward to give up the cause.
Henry Fielding
Image
In matters of religion and matrimony I never give any advice because I will not have anybody's torments in this world or the next laid to my charge.
