"Let me be clear. I support the definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman." ― Ben Nelson Topic(s): Marriage More From Ben Nelson "For many Americans, including many who are employed, going to the doctor when they fall ill or become injured may not be an option because of the absence of health insurance." "What does it mean to be an American? While each of us may have our own specific answer to that question, we likely can agree on the basic principles of America: freedom, equal opportunity, and rights accompanied by responsibilities." "We can take full comfort in realizing the continuing strength of our nation. America’s lands remain radiantly rich with diversity, and freedom still reigns." More In Marriage "I think long-lasting, healthy relationships are more important than the idea of marriage. At the root of every successful marriage is a strong partnership."― Carson Daly "I grew up in a Hindu household but went to a Roman Catholic school. I grew up with a mother who said, ‘I’ll arrange a marriage for you at 18,’ but she also said that we could achieve anything we put our minds to an encourage us to dream of becoming prime minister or president."― Indra Nooyi "Marriage to Fernando offered shelter and security, but the shackle was the price I’d pay."― Esther Williams
