Partisan gravity

I AM really lucky to have a wife that understands me, and is so frequently patient and forgiving of my considerable list of trying quirks – even at great cost to herself. No two people fit perfectly, but some people are lucky to fit pretty well.

The word “fit” here seems particularly relevant. Imagine a machine made up of many parts. When the parts fit together, the machine functions. When the parts do not fit together, the machine does not.
