A blanket could be used to save your marriage. But to be honest, I’d recommend saving your marriage in a Tupperware container. That way it’ll stay fresher for longer.

LEONATO Well, then, go you into hell? BEATRICE No, but to the gate; and there will the devil meet me, like an old cuckold, with horns on his head, and say 'Get you to heaven, Beatrice, get you to heaven; here's no place for you maids:' so deliver I up my apes, and away to Saint Peter for the heavens; he shows me where the bachelors sit, and there live we as merry as the day is long. ↗

#swearing #marriage

[I]t is not by being richer or more powerful that a man becomes better; one is a matter of fortune, the other of virtue.

Assuredly, whomsoever this concupiscence leads into marriage deserves payment rather than affection. ↗
