I'm not married, ” he said softly, “because I can't stomach the idea of marrying a woman inferior to me in mind and spirit. It would mean the death of my soul.

About This Quote

If you have someone in your life that you love and respect but is in a different league in terms of intellect and spirit, then the best thing to do is not marry that person. If you married a person who is inferior to you, they would be a constant reminder of your own shortcomings. It would be like having a mirror in your house that reflects your own flaws back at you every day. It might make for a good laugh, but it's not worth it.
