Quote by Carmen Miranda

I've chosen my wedding ring large and heavy to continue forever. But exactly because of that all the time that Dave and I have an argument I feel it like handcuffs, and on anger time I throw it in a basket. Poor Dave, he bought me three wedding rings already!

Summary

This quote seems to convey a conflicting sentiment towards the wedding ring. The speaker initially describes how they have chosen a large and heavy wedding ring, symbolizing the intention for their marriage to last indefinitely. However, during arguments with their partner, they feel trapped and constrained by the ring, equating it to handcuffs. This frustration leads them to impulsively throw it in a basket, presenting a somewhat humorous yet poignant portrayal of their relationship struggles. The mention of the partner buying them multiple wedding rings suggests a repeating cycle of conflict and reconciliation.

Perhaps the old monks were right when they tried to root love out; perhaps the poets are right when they try to water it. It is a blood-red flower, with the color of sin; but there is always the scent of a god about it.
