The intimate partnership of life and the love which constitutes the married state has been established by the creator and endowed by him with its own proper laws... Christ our Lord has abundantly blessed this love, which is rich in its various features, coming as it does from the spring of divine love and modeled on Christ's own union with the Church... Spouses, therefore, are fortifies and, as it were, consecrated for the duties and dignity of their state by a special sacrament.
- Vatican Council II, The Church in the Modern World, n. 48
