Anne: So John hired a beautiful new girl, what's new, El? Anne: As long as it's "all work and no play" there's no problem! Besides, you've go to trust your partner. Marriage is all about trust. If I didn't trust my husband, I think I'd go crazy. Elly: I guess you're right, Anne. Trust is the key. Anne: It's the key, all right... and if I found out he was "fooling around"... I'd change all the locks.
Macushlalondra: Maybe she has too much faith in the sanctity of marriage.
From http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1633197,00.html: In 2006 Barbara [Bush, the current president's mother,] noted that Ruth [Graham, the late wife of the late Reverend Billy,] had once been asked whether, as a Christian, she had ever contemplated divorce. Barbara explained, "Her answer, was, 'Divorce? No. Murder? Yes.'" Added Barbara, "I could understand that."
Of course, they were joking. Me, I think that Flo just hasn't come up with the nerve yet. But I'm waiting.
