Life is hard. After all, it kills you.

If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married.

If you follow all the rules, you miss all the fun.

Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should just live next door and just visit now and then.
