Summary

This quote highlights the legal perspective on marriage, stating that once two individuals are wed, they are legally recognized as one entity, with the husband being seen as the representative of that unit. It emphasizes the traditional view of marriage, where the husband assumes a dominant role and represents the couple legally. However, it may not necessarily reflect modern conceptions where partnerships are often seen as more egalitarian and based on equal representation and shared responsibilities.
