Summary

This quote creatively encapsulates the essence of divorce, emphasizing it as a dual decision made by both partners involved. It implies that divorce represents a conscious choice for each individual to assert their independence and break free from a shared commitment. By likening the process to a declaration with only two signers, the quote alludes to the significance of personal autonomy and highlights the equal responsibility both parties hold in initiating the divorce, by jointly agreeing to dissolve their union.
