Quote of the Dei

[astrum_adamas]

"True Marriage, that rare estate, is as close to paradise as humanity can come. But it cannot be attained by pretense of romance, or the pretense of cynicism. It can be attained only by keeping the vision of beauty constantly before us and by transmitting, by constant effort and courage, by faith and love, the hard matters of reality into the shape of the beloved dream.

And that marriage attained is the Garden of Paradise, whereof happy children are the 'fruit'.

---- John Whiteside Parsons, Freedom is a Lonely Star
