(I love this quote!)

"I didn't marry you because you were perfect. I didn't even marry you because I loved you. I married you because you gave me a promise. That promise made up for your faults. And the promise I gave you made up for mine. Two imperfect people got married and it was the promise that made the marriage. And when our children were growing up, it wasn't a house that protected them; and it wasn't our love that protected them - it was that promise. "

- Thornton Wilder, The Skin of Our Teeth

(I do love Mazreen though.. hehe. And I know we aren't married yet, but I love this quote!)
