Marriage

A slightly comical observation about marriage from P.G. Wodehouse, but it has elements of truth:

"The fact of the matter is, marriage today is made much too simple for a man. He finds it so easy to go out and grab some sweet girl that when he has got her he does not value her. I am convinced that that is the real cause of this modern boom in divorce. What marriage needs, to make it a stable institution, is something in the nature of obstacles during the courtship period."
