“After five years of playing other roles in each other’s lives, boasting that marriage was only a piece of paper, McKenna and Patrick had pulled the trigger. As a lawyer, she should have realized earlier that papers mattered. Papers created rights and responsibilities. Papers defined families.” – p. 26, IF YOU WERE HERE
“Responsibilities, as well as rights, enhance the dignity and integrity of the person” – United States v. Windsor
Today we are one step closer to rights, responsibilities, dignity, and integrity for all.
