"Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter
of chance. If the dispositions of the parties are ever so well known to
each other, or ever so similar before-hand, it does not advance their
felicity in the least. They always continue to grow sufficiently unlike
afterwards to have their share of vexation; and it is better to know as
little as possible of the defects of the person with whom you are to
pass your life." -Jane Austen (1775–1817), British novelist. Charlotte Lucas in Pride and Prejudice, ch. 6 (1813).
