There are precedents in nature, Fritzi. The giant eelbirds of Regulus Five, once each eleven years they must return to the caverns where they hatched. Here on Earth, the salmon. They must return to that one stream where they were born, to spawn or die in trying… but I digress.
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. Mignon McLaughlin
Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife. Franz Schubert
The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they’re right if you love to be with them all the time. Julia Child
My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me. Winston Churchill
After about 20 years of marriage, I’m finally starting to scratch the surface of what women want. And I think the answer lies somewhere between conversation and chocolate. Mel Gibson
Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave. Martin Luther
After 45 years of marriage, when I have an argument with my wife, if we don’t agree, we do what she wants. But, when we agree, we do what I want! Jacques Pepin
Marriage has no guarantees. If that’s what you’re looking for, go live with a car battery. Erma Bombeck
Marrying for love may be a bit risky, but it is so honest that God can’t help but smile on it. Josh Billings
Neither my wife or I proposed to the other. At the end of our first sate, I asked her “Well, how many kids do you want to have?” and she replied “Oh, I think 2 would be just right.” And, here we are 2 kids (+2 grandkids) and 43.5 years later.

You needed just one more panel where he says, “Will you make my Valentine’s Day fantastic? Will you marry me?”.

Guy is giving the readers an artistic treat before his tenure (and I suspect the strip) ends. Nice.

My wife proposed to me, three times. She was concerned because I didn’t have health insurance.

After all this lead-up, she’d better not say “No.”
