Obviously marriage is not a synonym for morality. But stable marriages and families do encourage moral behavior.
My first marriage was totally unsuitable and shouldn't have happened. It was a whirlwind rebound thing. I was 23 or 24 - a baby.
I was born to be married. I just feel comfortable there. I love the idea of being partnered for ever. I love my girlfriend we've been best friends since I was 18. There's not a thing we haven't been through except for marriage... We've had talks about what we would name our kids since we were in our 20s.
I'm completely comfortable with gay marriage.
So many people prefer to live in drama because it's comfortable. It's like someone staying in a bad marriage or relationship - it's actually easier to stay because they know what to expect every day versus leaving and not knowing what to expect.

If life were predictable it would cease to be life and be without flavor.
What we bring to the table is not only our 56 field offices in the United States and our number of resident agencies but also we have 45 legal attaches overseas.
We get information in the mail the regular postal mail encrypted or not vet it like a regular news organization format it - which is sometimes something that's quite hard to do when you're talking about giant databases of information - release it to the public and then defend ourselves against the inevitable legal and political attacks.
I think I'd like to stay anchoring because number one I'm learning a lot and I love it when I'm learning. And number two I also have the luxury of a stable life.
I have had many occasions this year where I questioned and second-guessed my decision in a game but it comes down to learning from mistakes and being accountable for what you did right or did wrong.
What makes this story so remarkable is that throughout my early childhood I had ongoing learning difficulties particularly in mathematics. I struggled to learn the multiplication table and no matter how hard I tried I simply couldn't remember 6 times 7 or 7 times 8.
