Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
Successful marriage is always a triangle: a man, a woman, and God.
Myers, Cecil

2.
I tended to place my wife under a pedestal.
Woody Allen

3.
Never marry for money. Ye'll borrow it cheaper.
Proverb, Scottish

4.
Often the difference between a successful marriage and a mediocre one consists of leaving about three or four things a day unsaid.
Miller, Harlan

5.
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

6.
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

7.
Never join with your friend when he abuses his horse or his wife, unless the one is to be sold and the other to be buried.
Colton, Charles Caleb

8.
All tragedies are finished by a death, all comedies by a marriage.
Byron, Lord

9.
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

10.
I wonder, among all the tangles of this mortal coil, which one contains tighter knots to undo, and consequently suggests more tugging, and pain, and diversified elements of misery, than the marriage tie.
Edith Wharton

11.
I'm certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.
Dobson, Dr. James C.

12.
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

13.
Marriage is the torment of one, the felicity of two, the strife and enmity of three.
Irving, Washington

14.
Every time a woman makes herself laugh at her husband's often-told jokes she betrays him. The man who looks at his woman and says What would I do without you? is already destroyed.
Greer, Germaine

15.
By all means marry. If you get a good wife you will become happy, and if you get a bad one you will become a philosopher.
Socrates

16.
Never say that marriage has more of joy than pain.
Euripides

17.
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

18.
The day you marry, it is either kill or cure.
Proverb, Spanish

19.
I am thinking of taking a fifth wife. Why not? Solomon had a thousand wives and he is a synonym for wisdom.
Barrymore, John

20.
Matrimony is the union of meanness and martyrdom.
Kraus, Karl

21.
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

22.
Love, the strongest and deepest element in all life, the harbinger of hope, of joy, of ecstasy; love, the defier of all laws, of all conventions; love, the freest, the most powerful molder of human destiny; how can such an all-compelling force be synonymous with that poor little State and Church-begotten weed, marriage?
Goldman, Emma

23.
Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.
Kathleen Norris

24.
Instead of getting married again. I'm going to find a woman I don't like and give her a house.
Grizzard, Lewis

25.
I'm not a real movie star. I've still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
Will Rogers

26.
A marriage is no amusement but a solemn act, and generally a sad one.
Victoria, Queen

27.
A successful marriage is an edifice that must be rebuilt every day.
Andre Maurois

28.
Americans, who make more of marrying for love than any other people, also break up more or their marriages, but the figure reflects not so much the failure of love as the determination not to live without it.
Hunt, Morton

29.
Dude, marriage is the'get out of loneliness free'card in the Monopoly game of life.
Veronica Pare and Ferrett Steinmetz

30.
Such is the common process of marriage. A youth and maiden exchange meeting by chance, or brought together by artifice, exchange glances, reciprocate civilities, go home, and dream of one another. Having little to divert attention, or diversify thought, they find themselves uneasy when they are apart, and therefore conclude that they shall be happy together. They marry, and discover what nothing but voluntary blindness had before concealed; they wear out life in altercations, and charge nature with cruelty.
Samuel Johnson

31.
A man in love is incomplete until he has married -- then he's finished.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa

32.
Marriage, for a woman at least, hampers the two things that made life to me glorious -- friendship and learning.
Harrison, Jane

33.
Being married gives one one's position like nothing else can.
Victoria, Queen

34.
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid

35.
Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who cannot sleep with window shut, and a woman who cannot sleep with the window open.
Nash, Ogden

36.
The world has suffered more from the ravages of ill-advised marriages than from virginity.
Bierce, Ambrose

37.
Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up.
Barth, Joseph

38.
I married the first man I ever kissed. When I tell this to my children they just about throw up.
Bush, Barbara

39.
I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon and a cat that comes home late at night.
Corelli, Marie

40.
Any intelligent woman who reads the marriage contract and then goes into it, deserves all the consequences.
Duncan, Isadora

41.
I'd marry again if I found a man who had 15 million and would sign over half of it to me before the marriage and guarantee he'd be dead within a year.
Davis, Bette

42.
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

43.
Like everything which is not the involuntary result of fleeting emotion but the creation of time and will, any marriage, happy or unhappy, is infinitely more interesting than any romance, however passionate.
Auden, W. H.

44.
For it is mutual trust, even more than mutual interest that holds human associations together. Our friends seldom profit us but they make us feel safe. Marriage is a scheme to accomplish exactly that same end.
Mencken, H. L.

45.
The best friend is likely to acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is based on the talent for friendship.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

46.
Marriage must be a relation either of sympathy or of conquest.
Eliot, George

47.
Marriage as an institution developed from rape as a practice. Rape, originally defined as abduction, became marriage by capture. Marriage meant the taking was to extend in time, to be not only use of but possession of, or ownership.
Dworkin, Andrea

48.
After seven years of marriage, I'm sure of two things -- first, never wallpaper together, and second, you'll need two bathrooms.. both for her. The rest is a mystery, but a mystery I love to be involved in.
Miller, Dennis

49.
No man was ever shot by his wife while doing the dishes.

50.
Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.
Lincoln, Abraham
