The philosophy of the ordsprog

The philosophy of the common man is an old wife that gives him no pleasure, yet he cannot live without her, and resents any aspersions that strangers may cast on her character.

Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? / For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind /intimacy, physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect.
