If you look at Norman Lloyd or Art Linkletter, both of their marriages lasted a long time. _________________________ The way to get things done is NOT to mind who gets the credit for doing them. --Benjamin Jowett No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. --Eleanor Roosevelt The day we lose our will to fight is the day we lose our freedom.

That is not an ideal ingredient in a happy marriage. _________________________ "Beauty is fleeting, its memory timeless"...Eidhneach O'Diomasaigh
