Motivational Quotes

Marriage

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.
- Ann Landers
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half-shut afterwards.
Franklin, Benjamin

2.
Marriage is a three ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering.

3.
A good marriage would be between a blind wife and a deaf husband.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

4.
To many women marriage is only this. It is merely a physical change impinging on their ordinary nature, leaving their mentality untouched, their self-possession intact. They are not burnt by even the red fire of physical passion - far less by the white fire of love.
Webb, Mary

5.
Marrying into money was not a good thing for me.
Smith, Anna Nicole

6.
Well married a person has wings, poorly married shackles.
Beecher, Henry Ward

7.
The curse which lies upon marriage is that too often the individuals are joined in their weakness rather than in their strength --each asking from the other instead of finding pleasure in giving. It is even more deceptive to dream of gaining through the child a plenitude, a warmth, a value, which one is unable to create for oneself; the child brings joy only to the woman who is capable of disinterestedly desiring the happiness of another, to one who without being wrapped up in self seeks to transcend her own existence.
Beauvoir, Simone De

8.
We cannot do without it, and yet we disgrace and vilify the same. It may be compared to a cage, the birds without despair to get in, and those within despair to get out.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

9.
One of the best hearing aids a man can have is an attentive wife.
Marx, Groucho

10.
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

11.
Happiness just wasn't part of the job description back then. You tried to find a helpmate to keep the cold wind and dogs at bay. Happiness just wasn't part of the equation. Survival was.
Robin Green

12.
I've sometimes thought of marrying, and then I've thought again.
Coward, Noel

13.
The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds -- they mature slowly.
Vries, Peter De

14.
Marriage is an act of will that signifies and involves a mutual gift, which unites the spouses and binds them to their eventual souls, with whom they make up a sole family --a domestic church.
John Paul II

15.
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. [Matthew 22:30]
Bible

16.
Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.
Lincoln, Abraham

17.
All men make mistakes, but married men find out about them sooner.
Skelton, Red

18.
Except for poverty, incompatibility, opposition of parents, absence of love on one side and of desire to marry on both, nothing stands in the way of our happy union.
Connolly, Cyril

19.
Deceive not thyself by over-expecting happiness in the married estate. Remember the nightingales which sing only some months in the spring, but commonly are silent when they have hatched their eggs, as if their mirth were turned into care for their young ones.
Fuller, Thomas

20.
Marriage is the sunset of love.
Proverb, French

21.
One good husband is worth two good wives, for the scarcer things are, the more they are valued.
Franklin, Benjamin

22.
Your marriage moves toward a state of isolation. Unless you lovingly and energetically nurture your marriage, you will begin to drift away from your mate.
Rainey, Dennis

23.
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

24.
The ancient saying is no heresy, hanging and wiving goes by destiny.
William Shakespeare

25.
Weeping bride, laughing wife, laughing bride, weeping wife.
Proverb, German

26.
Choose your wife as you wish your children to be.
Proverb

27.
My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind --intimacy, physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect.
Lawrence, D. H.

28.
My wife and I were happy for twenty. Then we met!
Dangerfield, Rodney

29.
That is what marriage really means: helping one another to reach the full status of being persons, responsible and autonomous beings who do not run away from life.
Paul Tournier

30.
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

31.
Matrimony is the union of meanness and martyrdom.
Kraus, Karl

32.
The concerts you enjoy together neighbors you annoy together children you destroy together that make marriage a joy
Sondheim, Stephen

33.
So that ends my first experience of matrimony, which I always thought a highly over-rated performance.
Duncan, Isadora

34.
Marriage is like a hot bath. Once you get used to it, it's not so hot.

35.
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
Lennon, John

36.
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

37.
There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends.
Homer

38.
Compromise: An amiable arrangement between husband and wife whereby they agree to let her have her own way.

39.
One of society's biggest problems today is that we've allowed relationships to be accepted as impermanent, particularly marriage.

40.
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William

41.
Marital Freedom: The liberty that allows a husband to do exactly that which his wife pleases.

42.
Marriage is a lottery in which men stake their liberty and women their happiness.
Rieux, Madame De

43.
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.
Mead, Margaret

44.
We love in others what we lack in ourselves, and would be everything, but what we are.
Stoddard, Richard Henry

45.
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

46.
Love is moral even without legal marriage, but marriage is immoral without love.
Key, Ellen

47.
Marriage is a lottery, but you can't tear up your ticket if you lose.
Knowles, F. M.

48.
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage: which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

49.
Marriage always demands the greatest understanding of the art of insincerity possible between two human beings.
Baum, Vicki

50.
Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. [Genesis 2:24]
Bible
