Tips for an apparently happy marriage.
1) "A good marriage is a bit like a pet boa constrictor: either you feed it every day or bad things happen."
2) "Sex is like chocolate cake. After five days of eating chocolate cake, even chocolate cake doesn't taste that great. But after five days of talking about chocolate cake, that chocolate cake tastes pretty damn good.
3) "With any job there's going to be a certain amount of professional stress. You like to come home sometimes and, for that lousy hour or whatever, kick back and relax. Life is serious enough, isn't it? Sometimes you need to do something stupid. And if you can't be stupid with your husband, who can you be stupid with?"
4) "Doing things separately gives you a chance to fill in the blanks that your partner can't fill in for you, for example, one of you likes classical music, the other one likes sports. Plus, taking a break from each other gives you more things to talk about, because when you're joined at the hip, what's to talk about? You've already seen it all."
5). "You've got to believe that somehow the two of you are going to make it through things. You've got to believe that you're being blessed with this person. And even if the power we feel just comes from the strength of our love, even if we don't believe that it's God who is helping us, I still think that it's good to acknowledge that there's a force between the two of us that's helping us out."
