MARRIAGE ADVICE FROM
1886
Let your love be stronger
than your hate or anger. Learn the wisdom of compromise, for it is better to
bend a little than to break. Believe the best than the worst. People have a way
of living up or down to your opinion of them. Remember that true friendship is
the basis for any lasting relationship. The person you choose to marry is
deserving of the courtesies and kindness you bestow on your friends. Please hand
this down to your children and your children's children : The more things change
the more they are the same.
