Where there is lasting love, there is a family.

You cannot decree women to be sexually free when they are not economically free.

People make institutions, not vice versa.

A family can be made up of any combination of people, heterosexual or homosexual, who share their lives in an intimate (not necessarily sexual) way. ... Wherever there is lasting love, there is a family.
