About This Quote
Marriage is the connecting of the two: Without passion it's just friendship. It’s said that if you marry the right person, you will be happy for life. If you don’t choose your partner wisely, you will be unhappy for life. This quote refers to the need to have a strong connection with one’s partner, but also to what can come of a relationship without love.
"Marrying the right person" refers to choosing a partner who shares similar interests and values. People who have a great deal in common are able to have fun and enjoy each other’s company because they have something in common to talk about. They can tolerate each other’s faults and share their joys.
A lack of passion often leads to boredom and lack of interest in one another. Passion makes people feel alive and provides meaning beyond the simple pleasures that come from being with their loved ones.
