    A good marriage is the best system Western society has found for ensuring the emotional well-being of the partners and the children. People who are not married don’t live as long as those who are. I think the reason why they don’t is that a good marriage helps us absorb and respond to the stresses of everyday life in a much healthier way than isolated individuals can.
