Four Horsemen principles come from: The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by Dr. Jon Gottman
Quote from family champion President Spencer W. Kimball:
"While marriage is difficult, and discordant and frustrated marriages are common, yet real, lasting happiness is possible, and marriage can be, more an exultant ecstasy than the human mind can conceive. This is within the reach of every couple, every person."
Kimball, S.W. Oneness in marriage, Retrieved April 21, 2017, from https://www.lds.org/ensign/1977/03/oneness-in-marriage?lang=eng
