I suffered fools so gladly.

I think that everyone should get married at least once, so you can see what a silly, outdated institution it is.

On the one hand, the idea of marriage and the sort of traditional family life repulses me. But on the other hand, I long for it, you know what I mean? I'm constantly in conflict with things. And it is because of my past and my upbringing and the journey that I've been on.
