"Marietta Newbury?" "Yes," Amelia said. "Whats wrong with her?" "I dont like her teeth." "What about Isabella Charrington?" "I dont like her mother." "Lady Blossom Tremaine?" "I dont like her name." "Oh, for heavens sake, Leo, thats not her fault." "I dont care. I cant have a wife named Blossom. Every night I would feel as if I were calling in one of the cows." Leo lifted his gaze heavenward. "I might as well marry the first woman off the street. Why, Id be better off with Marks." Everyone was silent.”

“Those who say marriage is no different to cohabitation are perhaps less sensitive to issues of continuity. Legally and socially, marriage provided us with an framework, struts: as a tradition, it predates history. And yet it is still trivialised as no more than "a piece of paper", or by the perception of it as a kind of country club from which those demarcated as undesirable are excluded. But marriage is not about religion or gender; it is an admission of vulnerability, a commitment to the perpetual evaluation of priorities and a social stabiliser.”
— Antonella Gambotto-Burke
