About a Lifelong Commitment symbolized by a wedding ring
“You putting on that ring while saying your vows. The saddest part about it is when most people promise for better or worse, they really only mean for the better.”
About Difference and Divorce
“Salt and pepper are completely different. Their makeup, their taste, and their color is different. But you always see them together. They give a more delicious taste to the cooked food.”
(The scene when Captain Michael, Caleb’s colleague, glued salt and pepper bottles)
“When two people get married, it’s for better or for worse, like these joined salt and pepper. For richer or for poorer. In sickness and in health. If you pull them apart, you’ll break either one or both of them. God made marriage to be for life.”
About a Fireproof Marriage
“Fireproof doesn’t mean that a fire will never come… But that when it comes, you’ll be able to withstand it.”
About Studying Your Spouse
“When a man is trying to win the heart of a woman, he studies her. He learns her likes, dislikes, habits, and hobbies. But after he wins her heart and marries her, he often stops learning about her. If the amount he studied her before marriage was equal to a high school degree, he should continue to learn about her until he gains a college degree, a master’s degree, and ultimately a doctorate degree. It is a lifelong journey that draws his heart ever close to hers”
About the Feel of Giving Up
“The halfway point is tend to be the hardest one. Because it’s when you determine whether your heart’s in it or not. Makes you check your real motives when things get difficult.”
About God’s Standards
“If we consider that we are good people, remember that God judges us not with our standard, but by His standard. His standards are so high, He considers hatred to be murder… and lust to be adultery. If you broke one of His commandments, one day you’ll answer Him for that.”
About True Love

    Author Stephanie Coontz writes about the ideas of love and marriage through out history in the article “The Radical Idea of Marrying for Love.” Early in the article Coontz quotes an early twentieth century author by the name of George Bernard Shaw, who states, “marriage is an institution that brings together two people under the influence of the most violent, most insane, most delusive, and most transient of passions. They are required to swear that they will remain in that excited, abnormal, and exhausting condition continuously until death do them part.” ( qtd. in Shaw 378) Coontz explains that the ideas of marriage today are, although heart felt, unrealistic and daunting.

    “I think we are inviting God’s judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at Him and say ‘we know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage’ and I pray God’s mercy on our generation that has such a prideful, arrogant attitude to think that we have the audacity to define what marriage is about. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that. We want to do anything we possibly can to strengthen families. We are very much committed to that” (Valentin).…
