In the discussion of these questions, my task has
not been to settle for you, or to have you settle, all your problems
in advance. I have sought only to give those not yet married some
understanding of the kinds of questions and problems which they
should face now in order to live more worthwhile married lives
later, and to explore some of the possibilities for both explanation
and solution of these problems.
I shall not wish you good luck. For marriage
success, as in any phase of living, is not a matter of luck. It
will depend mainly upon intelligent understanding, plus the
determination to succeed, which is sufficient to inspire you to pay
the costs of success.
