I haven't, in my life, experienced easy decision-making on major decisions. But one of the simplest and clearest decisions I've had to make is this one, because circumstances dictated it. Uh, Muriel, now in the last couple of months, seems to be almost happy when with me and almost never happy when not with me. In fact, she seems to feel trapped, becomes very fearful, sometimes almost terror, and when she can't get to me, there can be anger; she's in distress. But when I'm with her, she's happy and contented. And so I must be with her at all times.
And you see, it's not only that I promised, in sickness and in health, till death do us part, and I'm a man of my word. But, as I have said, I don't know with this group, but I've said publicly, it's the only fair thing. She sacrificed for me for 40 years to make my life possible. So if I cared for her, her, for 40 years, I'd still be in debt. However, there's much more; it's not that I have to, it's that I get to. I love her very dearly, and you can tell it's not easy to talk about. She's a delight; it's a great honor to care for such a wonderful person. [Music]
