Intentionally Quotes

Consider being more acceptive of your partner's behaviors.
It is unlikely that they are intentionally aggravating you.

and adopt a live-and-let-live attitude.
Your relationship will become stronger and happier if you do.

Not in the sense of intentionally speaking untruths,
but in the sense of carrying so much historical

and virtually everything that comes out of our mouth
is an untruth - an opinion, an assumption,
a point-of-view based on our past.

But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.
