And this becomes the transcendent pattern for the family organization and government of even the lowly creatures of the worlds of space. This is, in deed and in truth, the high ideal of the family and the human institution of voluntary marriage.”

And this becomes the transcendent pattern for the family organization and government of even the lowly creatures of the worlds of space.
