Quotes from Inside Left Panel:
"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh."
Genesis 2:24
"The primary and most important of the domestic relations, is that of husband and wife. It has its foundation in nature, and is the only lawful relation by which Providence has permitted the continuance of the human race. In every age it has had a propitious influence on the moral improvement and happiness of mankind. It is one of the chief foundations of social order. We may justly place to the credit of the institution of marriage, a great share of the blessings which flow from refinement of manners, the education of children, the sense of justice, and the cultivation of the liberal arts."
–James Kent, Commentaries on American Law (New York: Da Capo Press, 1971), Vol. II, p. 65.
"In my estimation, more permanent and genuine happiness is to be found in the sequestered walks of connubial [married] life than in the giddy rounds of promiscuous pleasure, or the more tumultuous and imposing scenes of successful ambition."
–George Washington, The Writings of George Washington from the Original Manuscript Sources, 1745-1799, John C. Fitzpatrick, editor (Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, 1938), Vol. XXVIII, p. 514, to Charles Armand-Tuffin on August 10, 1786.
