Summary

This quote suggests that the greatest inequality in a marriage can arise from having differing minds and purposes. It implies that for a marriage to be successful, there needs to be harmony and compatibility between partners in terms of their thoughts, values, and goals. When there is a significant disparity in these aspects, it can lead to conflicts, misunderstandings, and an overall lack of alignment, which can ultimately result in an unsuccessful and unhappy union.
