Quote by James Graham

Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.

Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.

Summary

This quote suggests that love itself can blind individuals to the flaws and realities of their partners. It implies that when people enter into marriage, they commit to a long-term partnership without always fully understanding or seeing the potential challenges or difficulties they may face together. Marriage is portrayed as an institution where partners must navigate through life's challenges without always having clear insight or foresight, perhaps relying solely on love for guidance. Overall, it highlights the idea that love can be both a powerful force and a potential risk in the context of marriage.

Other misfortunes may be borne, or their effects overcome. If disastrous war should sweep our commerce from the ocean, another generation may renew it; if it exhaust our treasury, future industry may replenish it; It were but a trifle even if the walls of yonder Capitol were to crumble, if its lofty pillars should fall, and its gorgeous decorations be all covered by the dust of the valley.

No, if these columns fall, they will be raised not again. they will be the remnants of a more glorious edifice than Greece or Rome ever saw, the edifice of constitutional American liberty.

This act [creation], as it is for God, must always remain totally inconceivable to man. For we--even our poets and musicians and inventors--never, in the ultimate sense make. We only build. We always have materials to build from. All we can know about the act of creation must be derived from what we can gather about the relation of the creatures to their Creator
