“Sometimes the love that it takes to look at your partner and realise that they should remain the way that they are, and not evolve alongside you, because they're happier as who they are just like that; whilst knowing that you must evolve, you must go on without them, because you have this one life and you know there's so much more on your path for you; is a far greater love than staying. Sometimes, leaving someone takes more courage and more love than wanting a life for them beside you, one that they aren't supposed to live.”

“It was Pidge's observation that toleration rather than love was what kept her parents together. They were yoked like horses to a plow and they moved through life pulling something neither could see that kept them a safe distances from each other. There was something both admirable and sad in their marital work ethic, and Pidge promised herself she wouldn't settle like they had. It was a promise she broke.”

“Jag vet mycket litet i kvinnofrågan, ty den rör mig icke, men jag tror, efter vad jag sett, att vår generation kommer avskaffa det asiatiska, som ännu finnes i äktenskapet. Båda parterna avsluta ett fritt fördrag, ingen uppger sin självständighet, den ena söker icke uppfostra den andra, man lär sig respektera varandras svagheter och man har ett kamratskap för livet, som icke tröttar genom den ena partens pockande på ömhet. Fru Nicolaus Falk, du vet, den där välgörande djäveln, den anser jag vara ingenting annat än en femme entretenue, och så betraktar hon ju sig själv också; de flesta fruar gifta sig för att få det bra och slippa arbeta, att bli "sin egen"; att där ingås så få äktenskap, det är kvinnans fel, och mannens!”
