Husbands and Other Sharp Objects Quotes

“This is it, Mom. I will be married forever.” I remembered the day I married Harvey. I had thought the same thing. I hoped so much she was right—that today would be the start of forever. After all, what was marriage but a roll of the dice, a naive leap of faith? Something people believed in, even though there was so much evidence to the contrary, evidence that it would not work, but we hoped it would work, because we wanted all the love and comfort of living life with another person.”
