I recently read that love is entirely a matter of chemistry. That must be why my wife treats me like toxic waste. -- David Bissonette When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her. -- Sacha Guitry After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin; they just can't face each other, but still they stay together. -- Hemant Joshi By all means marry.
