Men as well as women are much oftener led by their hearts than by their understandings.

When a hundred men stand together each of them loses his mind and gets another one.

After I read all the medical journals and watched all the documentaries I still didn't understand the physical sensation of ticking and where it comes from and what it feels like.

In the sick room ten cents' worth of human understanding equals ten dollars' worth of medical science.

When you're suddenly pregnant and no one is standing by your side even if you're in your 30s it's a hard conversation. I'm a traditional girl and I believe in marriage and I just always thought that's the way I'd be doing this.

No marriage can stand up under the strain of incessant association.

The old welfare system was hurting people by discouraging work and marriage. Welfare reform and now this legislation will build on the understanding that work and strong families are the foundation upon which we build our future.

At my core what I think we need to do is to get the basics right again. We need to rebuild our family structure stay away from redefining marriage and stand by marriage as a union between a man and a woman.

It's only fair that stable gay relationships of long standing should have the same rights and responsibilities as married couples. I know the image of gay marriage is to some people horrific and ludicrous.

When I talk about the importance of the institution of marriage I think of the commitment and the significance of standing in front of those closest to you and promising fidelity to your partner 'til death do you part.'
