Excerpts on Marriage and Love.

On MARRIAGE:

“A marriage is hard work and sometimes it’s a bit of a bore. It’s like housework. It’s never finished. You’ve just got to grit your teeth and keep working away at it, day after day. Of course, the men don’t work as hard at it as we do, but that’s men for you, isn’t it? They’re not much good at housework either. Well, they weren’t in my day. Of course, these days they cook, vacuum, change nappies–the lot! Still don’t get equal pay in the workforce, though, do you? You’ve got a long way to go, you girls. Not doing much about it, though, are you?”

On LOVE:

“Love! Pfff! I’ll tell you something, something important. Write this down. You ready?’

‘Yes, yes, I’m ready.’

‘Love is a decision.’

‘Love is a decision?’

‘That’s right. A decision. Not a feeling. That’s what you young people don’t realise. That’s why you’re always off divorcing each other. No offence, dear.”
