Quotes:

"Marriage is my trophy to the world. I hold it up to the world because the world says that there is no way that forgiveness and love and not keeping an account and all of these things, there's no way that that can be done." - Dr. Juantisa Hughes

"When you get serious about your relationship with God and you decide that you want His way and not your way, changes will have to be made." - Dr. Juantisa Hughes

"Understand what you have and what you're going through and allow that person to know some of that trauma, some of that drama that you have so they can understand who you are, how to deal with you, how to help you." - Quashaunda Kitchens

"Communicate, compromise, and then commitment. Communicate about what it is that you need to do and where you need to go. Make compromises for both of you and then commit to doing the work and get it done." - Mattie James

"Marriage will make you look at yourself. And the reason we quarrel is because we have fear. We got pride. We're wrapped up in a whole lot of things." - Dr. Juantisa Hughes
