To marry someone with the idea of possessing him or her is to rob that person of the precious endowment of liberty. If that other person is "mine," like a cocktail, then he or she can never make a present of himself or herself. What I possess I can no longer receive as a gift. You cannot receive a gift of ten dollars if you already have it in your pocket and you own it.
( Fulton J. Sheen )
