The wedding is the chief ceremony of the middle-class mythology, and it functions as the official entrée of the spouses to their middle-class status.

If you want to live in Tennessee, God bless you, I wish for you a long life and starry evenings. But that is not where I want to live my life. I want to live my life in Carthage, in Athens.
