Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
The marriage state, with and without the affection suitable to it, is the completest image of Heaven and Hell we are capable of receiving in this life.
Steele, Sir Richard

Euripides

Marriage always demands the greatest understanding of the art of insincerity possible between two human beings.
Baum, Vicki

4.
Marriage is the best state for man in general, and every man is a worst man in proportion to the level he is unfit for marriage.
Johnson, Samuel

5.
Remember, that if thou marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which perchance will neither last nor please thee one year; and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all; for the desire dieth when it is attained, and the affection perisheth when it is satisfied.
Sir Walter Raleigh

6.
Marriage is the miracle that transforms a kiss from a pleasure into a duty.

The conception of two people living together for twenty-five years without having a cross word suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.

Fox, Michael J.

9.
Marriage is a mistake every man should make.
Jessel, George

Those that marry for money sell their liberty.
Proverb

11.
I used to believe that marriage would diminish me, reduce my options. That you had to be someone less to live with someone else when, of course, you have to be someone more.
Candice Bergen

12.
Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
Streisand, Barbara

Beecher, Henry Ward

As a general thing, when the woman wears the pants in the family, she has a good right to them.
Billings, Josh

16.
Sensual pleasures have the fleeting brilliance of a comet; a happy marriage has the tranquillity of a lovely sunset.
Landers, Ann

17.
When a wife has a good husband it is easily seen in her face.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

18.
God invented concubinage, Satan marriage.
Picabia, Francis

19.
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.
Mead, Margaret

20.
To marry unequally is to suffer equally.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

21.
The only thing that holds a marriage together is the husband being big enough to keep his mouth shut, to step back and see where his wife is wrong.
Bunker, Archie

22.
The world must be peopled. When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
Shakespeare, William

23.
Once you are married, there is nothing for you, not even suicide, but to be good.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

24.
All married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn the art of making love. Good battle is objective and honest --never vicious or cruel. Good battle is healthy and constructive, and brings to a marriage the principle of equal partnership.
Landers, Ann

25.
A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love.
Pearl Buck

26.
Marriage is not a noun; it's a verb. It isn't something you get. It's something you do. It's the way you love your partner every day.
Angelis, Barbara De

27.
If I ever marry it will be on a sudden impulse, as a man shoots himself.
Mencken, H. L.

28.
Compromise: An amiable arrangement between husband and wife whereby they agree to let her have her own way.

29.
Always get married early in the morning. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted a whole day.
Mickey Rooney

30.
Marriage should be a duet -- when one sings, the other claps. Joe Murray The only way to make a man trustworthy is to trust him.
Stimson, Henry Lewis

31.
Any young man who is unmarried at the age of twenty one is a menace to the community.
Young, Brigham

32.
The best part of married life is the fights. The rests is merely so.
Wilder, Thornton

33.
A woman must be a genius to create a good husband.
Balzac, Honore De

34.
The problem with marriage is that it ends every night after making love, and it must be rebuilt every morning before breakfast.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

35.
In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

36.
A man will teach his wife what is needed to arouse his desires. And there is no reason for a woman to know any more than what her husband is prepared to teach her. If she gets married knowing far too much about what she wants and doesn't want then she will be ready to find fault with her husband.
Cartland, Barbara

37.
Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.
Kathleen Norris

38.
Marriage should be a duet-when one sings, the other claps.
Murray, Joe

Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up.
Barth, Joseph

It resembles a pair of shears, so joined that they cannot be separated, often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing anyone who comes between them.
Smith, Sydney

42.
Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.
Graham, James

43.
There is a rhythm to the ending of a marriage just like the rhythm of a courtship --only backward. You try to start again but get into blaming over and over. Finally you are both worn out, exhausted, hopeless. Then lawyers are called in to pick clean the corpses. The death has occurred much earlier.
Jong, Erica

44.
In Hollywood a marriage is a success if it outlasts milk.
Rita Rudner

45.
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
Ziglar, Zig

46.
When you're a married man, Samivel, you'll understand a good many things as you don't understand now; but whether it's worth while, going through so much, to learn so little, as the charity-boy said when he got to the end of the alphabet, is a matter o taste.
Dickens, Charles

47.
Nature admits of no permanence in the relation between man and woman. It is only man's egoism that wants to keep woman like some buried treasure. All endeavors to introduce permanence in love, the most changeable thing in this changeable human existence, have gone shipwreck in spite of religious ceremonies, vows, and legalities.
Sacher-Masoch, Leopold Von

48.
The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds -- they mature slowly.
Vries, Peter De

49.
Wasn't marriage, like life, unstimulating and unprofitable and somewhat empty when too well ordered and protected and guarded? Wasn't it finer, more splendid, more nourishing, when it was, like life itself, a mixture of the sordid and the magnificent; of mud and stars; of earth and flowers; of love and hate and laughter and tears and ugliness and beauty and hurt?
Ferber, Edna

50.
That a marriage ends is less than ideal; but all things end under heaven, and if temporality is held to be invalidating, then nothing real succeeds.
Updike, John
