Pg. 24 "Marriage, in my culture, has nothing to do with romance. It's a matter of logic.
Marriage is different in many cultures. For Sundara and her culture in Children Of the River, it is arranged marriages and the children have no say. In this book, it's logic, if the parents like each other than the kids have to too. But if they don't like each other, the kids can not be together. In America, you can marry who ever you want, and I think that is the best choice.
Pg. 30 "Male peacocks display their feathers to attract the female, but a male human displaying an over flowing gut yields far different results."
I think this quote is very true because even though people say looks don't matter, I think everyone secretly thinks that they do. Men do a lot of things to impress girls and a lot has to do with looks. Sundara, in children of the River, first noticed Jonathan because of his good looks.
