“In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again.... We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.”
The idea behind the quotation
In marriage, partners can be fully themselves with each other, because their lasting familiarity makes them feel young and free from judgment.
