About this Quote

This quote by Richard Brinsley Sheridan suggests that it is wise to participate in a marriage with a particular degree of caution. He indicates that it is better to begin a marital relationship with a certain level of detachment, rather than with an overwhelming amount of love and passion. This is because, as time passes, the preliminary intensity of love and enthusiasm can fade, leaving the couple sensation disconnected and dissatisfied. By beginning a marriage with a little hostility, the couple can avoid the dissatisfaction of unmet expectations and the disillusionment that can feature the passage of time. Sheridan's quote motivates couples to be reasonable and to approach marital relationship with a healthy dose of care and reserve.
