Quote by Obergefell v. Hodges
"The restriction of marriage to opposite-sex couples contradicts our founding principles."
More from Obergefell v. Hodges
"The Constitution grants them a fundamental 'right to marry.'"
"No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice and family."
"It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage."
"Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves."
