I have such hatred of divorce that I prefer bigamy to divorce. Anyway, I think we should see other people.

My parents' divorce was very difficult. Divorce is essentially incredibly painful, but it's also an essential part of life.

Abi Morgan

Awkward conversations are painful, but they're way easier than divorce, resentment, and heartbreak.

Emily V. Gordon

Let me be serious: divorce is a sacred institution between a man and a woman who hate each other. God wanted Adam to pay alimony to Eve, not Steve.

The vast army of women seeking divorce are mainly after easy alimony from men they have ceased to love - surely one of the most despicable forms of barter that can exchange human hands.

Fannie Hurst

Robin Williams

I never imagined that divorce would be part of my life history or my family's legacy. When people say that divorce can be more painful than death, I understand why. But like any great trial, God uses everything for good, if we allow Him to heal us.

William Shatner

When parents are educated about how not to involve children in their conflicts and co-parent amicably, a lot of the ill effects of divorce can be alleviated. Divorce is always painful. But kids in a high-conflict marriage or low-conflict but contemptuous ones are often better off in the long run when the parent can disengage.

Stephanie Coontz

I go back to [the idea] that we are avoiding all of these unknowns, we're avoiding the night - most of us - we're avoiding the encounters, but we're also afraid to deal with something unknown, unseen.
