"I’ve never quite understood why people marry; marriage is just an invented structure." ― Julie Christie Topic(s): Marriage More From Julie Christie "I never will have peace of mind. I’m not constructed that way. Some things in life can be horrible." "Happiness is the absence of suffering. I think it’s an interesting way of looking at it. I think the absence of suffering exists very rarely in the world we live in." "As I became very defined in my personal politics, I turned down some films that I slightly regret now; I’m not going to say what they were." More In Marriage "Marriage – a book of which the first chapter is written in poetry and the remaining chapters in prose."― Beverley Nichols "I hope to bring people to God with my songs."― Mahalia Jackson "Traditional marriage between a man and a woman has been a cornerstone of our society for generations. If we are going to change that, it ought to be done by the will of the people."― Steve Chabot
