“ In my day, husbands and wives showed each other a suitable level of indifference. ”
I take you as my queen, to protect and honor, to be my light in darkness, my courage in fear, my healing in sickness, my riches in need, my peace in war, my life in death. In token I present to you my sword by which I so swear from this hour henceforth, until death take me or the world end. I name you now Calista Vandal.” (Hero's wedding vow to his bride.)
~ Ashlyn Macnamara

Ah, sarcasm. The final refuge of the desperate.
I believe I've come to understand something. Love isn't always big and dramatic. It's big, it's deep, but it's also quiet and calm.
