I don't want to be married. I'm very happy with a civil partnership. If gay people want to get married, or get together, they should have a civil partnership.

My love for the child asleep in the crib, the child's need for me, for my vigilance, had made my life valuable in a way that even the most abundantly offered love, my parents', my brother's, even Tom's, had failed to do.
