Quote by Morton Hunt

Americans, who make more of marrying for love than any other people, also break up more of their marriages, but the figure reflects not so much the failure of love as the determination of people not to live without it.

Americans, who make more of marrying for love than any other

Summary

This quote suggests that Americans prioritize love when they get married more than any other group, but they also experience a higher rate of divorce. However, this high divorce rate does not necessarily indicate a lack of love, but rather emphasizes the strong desire of individuals to not settle for a loveless or unhappy marriage. It implies that Americans are more likely to choose divorce in order to pursue a life that is filled with love and happiness rather than remain in an unsatisfying relationship.
