  • No matter how free divorce, how frequently marriages break up, in most societies there is the assumption of permanent mating, of the idea that the marriage should last as long as both live. . . . No known society has ever invented a form of marriage strong enough to stick that did not contain the 'till death us do part' assumption.

    Margaret Mead (1975). “Male and female: a study of the sexes in a changing world”, William Morrow & Co
  • I don't consider my marriages as failures! It's idiotic to assume that because a marriage ends, it's failed.

    "Male and Female". Book by Margaret Mead, 1949.
