“If you want something to last forever, you treat it differently. you shield it and protect it. You never abuse it. You don’t expose it to the elements. You don’t make it common or ordinary. If it ever becomes tarnished, you lovingly polish it until it gleams like new. It becomes special because you have made it so, and it grows more beautiful and precious as time goes by.” –F. Burton Howard

This quote above describes how marriage should be viewed, as something special. We need to make sure we are treating it as such. “Tenderness and respect, never selfishness, must be the guiding principles in the intimate relationship between husband and wife.” —Howard W. Hunter “True love is a process. True love requires personal action.” —Marvin J. Ashton
