The
Payoff
John
Gottman, Ph.D.
What makes a good marriage is really
nurturing the friendship between you, The friendship is based on real
interest in one another, real respect. It's about asking questions.
It's about being mindful in small moments when your partner is asking
for something and needing something. Being there, being present and
about really caring.
Maria Kaj
Love is, I came home today and I want to tell you about my day and
hear what you say in response. I'm looking forward, as I'm driving
into the driveway, to seeing you so I can tell you about my day. And
I'm gonna do that for the rest of my life. I can't think of anything
better.
Deborah Gayle
I had to give up the idea of what I thought marriage was. I had to
give up society's idea of marriage. I had to give up the idea that
it's supposed to look a certain way. That it's supposed to have a
certain definition. I feel that marriage is what two people make it.
Reverend Nirvana Gayle
It's something beautiful to embark upon. I know that for me, having
had the opportunity to be with my beloved for these 33 years has been
the most enriching experience for me. That if it weren't for that, I
would not be anywhere the man that I am today.
Sol Sigal
There isn't a day that goes by that we don't say I love you to each
other, over and over again. Although we've heard it from each other
for 56 years. We know that to be a fact.
Lydia Heston
I think if young people understood how wonderful it is to have a good
solid marriage at our stage of life, they might be a little less
inclined to give it all up.
Charlton Heston
She's quite right. That is remarkable. We are, if anything, happier
now than we were when we were just kids. When I'd just come back from
the war. There is no happier than this. There is happier than that if
you stick with it. |
