[Essence] “The idea that a good marriage is made in heaven and swung down on a golden cord like a gift from God did not coincide with my lifelong observations.
Yes the wedding can be a beautiful and exciting, expensive event, or it can be a handshake, or a jump over a broom – but it is just that – an event, the one that precedes the marriage.” Ossie and Ruby together in the 1960s.
