Quote context

[...]

- Here is your host, Don McNeil.

- Most stories have a romantic turn. You know, the boy meets the girl, they fall in love, they're married, and live happily ever after.

- But what really happened?

- Well, the boy met the girl all right, and she thought he was the most handsome, the most wonderful person in the world.

- And he thought that she was the most beautiful, the most exquisite girl in the world. So they were married. And they were happy. Very happy.

- But, one day he comes home from work, and she's in the kitchen crying over the burned potatoes and pudding.

- And she looks neither exquisite nor beautiful. And he feels tired and annoyed.

- One word follows another, and both are disillusioned and discouraged because their expectations of one another are not being fulfilled.

- She is no longer exquisite. And he is no longer wonderful. Neither is what the other had imagined.

- Yes, homes can be and are unhappy because they're built on false hopes.
