"I’m not for gay marriage, but I’m not for discriminating against people." ― Joel Osteen Topic(s): Marriage More From Joel Osteen "I didn’t try to copy my dad or fit into the pressure or the mold that everybody tried to make me fit into." "I try to speak in everyday language. I feel like God has gifted me to take Bible principles and make them practical." "I have always believed in God." More In Marriage "Well, marriage doesn’t function in the way it used to in terms of deciding our fate, but it’s in our heads, and it determines a lot of our actions. Like, right now, if you think about gay marriage – and they just started having the first gay marriages in New York – it shows what a potent idea marriage remains for people."― Jeffrey Eugenides "National security is the first duty of government but we are also committed to reversing the substantial erosion of civil liberties."― Theresa May "I do not think that marriage is one of my talents. I’ve been much happier unmarried than married."― Doris Lessing
