Man and woman Quote by Kinley MacGregor
““Marriage. ’Tis an unholy union between two people, and for what purpose? To make them both miserable. (Stryder) I don’t believe is has to be that way. Imagine a marriage where the man and woman respect each other. Where they are partners and allies. (Rowena) You are sober and speak more foolishness than I do while drunk. (Stryder)””
