To Marry a Second Time Represents the Triumph of Hope over Experience
To marry a second time represents the triumph of hope over experience.
~~ Samuel Johnson ~~
Funny and true as well. However, some people are getting smart - they don’t marry even once! And if they do decide to marry, they draw up a prenuptial agreement to mitigate their losses when the hammer falls. :-)
But those who marry a second time or more, obviously belong to that class of people who refuse to learn anything from their experience. Or may be they are incorrigible optimists and keep marrying again and again hoping against hope that this time things will get better.
