reliability

A steadfast heart does not stray from the path.

The body is not a reliable friend

Dagny leaned back in her chair. The short sentence was a shock.

If you were married, you were mature, reliable, exactly like them, because in their day men and women didn't just live together--they made a commitment, they had children and went on cruises and built big houses on lakes and filled them with all the precious trinkets and manufactured artifacts they'd collected along the way.
