"Let us be honest with each other. The threat to
marriage is not the gays. It is a lack of loving
commitment – whether it is found in the form of
neglect, indifference, cruelty, or adultery –
to name just a few manifestations of the loveless
desert in which too many marriages come to grief."

to believe in failure, simply because you had
to be prepared to go through an idea without

~ Malcolm McLaren, musician
"Reconciliation requires changes of heart and
