"A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person."

Same Gender Wedding: 1) the act of marrying 2) the ceremony or act of marriage 3) to attach firmly or indissolubly in spite of the chauvinist, biased, wilfully ignorant, or dangerously narrow-minded political, sociological, heterosexist culture you may reside in.
“The fact that what the sex of someone you love is (still) an issue is just unbelievable to me. I mean, love is such a hard f***ing thing — to find somebody who's willing to go through anything with you and stand by you that, on its own, is so hard to find. The fact that people want to complicate it even more just absolutely baffles me. If it happens, cherish it! What does it matter if you're sharing it with a man or with a woman? It's very strange to me."
— Charlize Theron
