The success of a marriage invariably depends upon the woman.

No illusion is more crucial than the illusion that great success and huge money buy you immunity from the common ills of mankind, such as cars that won't start.

I’ve discovered that Clare likes to be alone. But when I return from time traveling she is always relieved to see me.
