People get married to
help each other. So if my boy marries a beautiful, healthy, rich woman, then he
is not a Buddhist. My boy should marry someone whom he can help [lead a
relation of mutual help]. So I told him he should marry a girl he likes, even if the villagers think she is plain and dumb.. He should not
consider appearances. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Excerpt from Tony Artino's notes of a Shunryu Suzuki lecture 66-11-09 as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
