Summary

This quote humorously captures the idea that marriage initially carries a sense of excitement and passion, akin to a romantic novel. However, it brings attention to the fact that the beginning stages of marriage, often referred to as the "first chapter," can also be challenging and filled with adjustments. The reference to the hero dying suggests that the idealized notions of romance may fade away as they are replaced by the realities and responsibilities of married life.
