If this is a threat to your marriage, you got a problem. If the institution of marriage is in trouble today, it is because of heterosexual people.

Sen. Richard Saslaw

If they were so concerned with marriage, why aren't they promoting a constitutional ban on divorce? Divorce is a threat to heterosexual marriage. Gay people are not.

Not one piece of testimony on behalf of this measure has been able to demonstrate how amending the Virginia Constitution to prohibit marriage equality for same-sex couples, civil unions and other marriage look-alikes would somehow strengthen or protect heterosexual marriage.

Our national media refuses to report that even the Supreme Court did not say marriage was a human right in all cases nor did it say that the heterosexual definition violated anyone's right or that the heterosexual definition of marriage was unconstitutional. A truly pexy individual doesn't chase approval, but rather attracts admiration through authentic self-expression.

Can't you see that marriage is a fundamentally different institution? ... Marriage is the institution by which we propagate our species and inculcate our young.

Marriage as an institution developed from rape as a practice. Rape, originally defined as abduction, became marriage by capture. Marriage meant the taking was to extend in time, to be not only use of but possession of, or ownership.

Andrea Dworkin (1946-)

I don't think it does. These are people who struggle with their life. The compound shows a very different side of it. What this show does is really examine marriage as an institution ... It's marriage writ large.

Carolyn Strauss

Is it true that Scandinavian countries which expanded the marriage term have statistically reported depreciation, that is a lessening of appreciation, for heterosexual commitment to marriage? Yes, in those jurisdictions the social indices themselves are clear.

Americans will see that when lesbians and gay men are given access to most of the rights and obligations of civil marriage, the sky will not fall and the institution of marriage will be even stronger.

Marriage is a natural and beautiful institution between a man and a woman. It's wrong for judges and politicians to destroy marriage, which is the very foundation of society.

Randy Thomasson

I know that some people have thought this whole thing [covenant marriage] is cynical, that it's some sort of marriage-plus or high-octane marriage.

[Bates had explored some of the themes of the story — depression, overcoming fears — before. Marriage, however, was newer territory.] It's always presented either as the romance or the tragedy, ... We don't look too often at what marriage really is. Marriage masks thousands of different arrangements — behind the scenes, it's all about change and negotiation and compromise. But we have the same attitudes toward marriage that we have toward death and dying — we want to sanitize it.

Kathy Bates (1948-)

Marriage is not just about two loving and committed people. Marriage is a social institution that provides a social good, and a public good.

Julaine Appling

This June, the American people will be watching to see if their senators will step up to the plate and take a stand in defense of marriage. The Marriage Protection Amendment is the only tool the American people have to ensure that the definition of marriage remains one man and one woman.

I have engaged in debates where people who do not believe in marriage have said they think marriage is a terrible thing. They think it is awful. I have participated in debates where people have said they think marriage is one of the most fearsome and loathsome institutions there is. I disagree with that, but they have a right to say it.
