About This Quote

This quote captures the essence of love. It says that one should not wish to be married to someone who has already been married. Rather, it would be like having someone else break into your own pony. The idea is that when you are in love with someone, you are not thinking about past relationships or the other person’s previous marriage. Rather, you are only focused on the present and future with that person.
