Marriage is really tough because you have to deal with feelings and lawyers.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Pryor's comedic line reduces marriage to two intertwined burdens: managing raw emotion and, when things go wrong, managing legal complications. The joke plays on how something meant to be about love can quickly become entangled with contracts and disputes, undercutting romance with blunt, comic practicality.
