Marriage

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
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
The mere idea of marriage, as a strong possibility, if not always nowadays a reasonable likelihood, existing to weaken the will by distracting its straight aim in the life of practically every young girl, is the simple secret of their confessed inferiority in men's pursuits and professions to-day.
Bolitho, William

2.
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La

3.
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

4.
Marriage is an institution, but who wants to live in an institution?

5.
All marriages are mixed marriages.
Chantal Saperstein

6.
Be to their virtue very kind; be to their faults a little blind.
Prior, Matthew

7.
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

8.
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.

9.
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

10.
Polygamy is an endeavor to get more out of life than there is in it.
Hubbard, Elbert

11.
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

12.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

13.
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

14.
A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love.
Pearl Buck

15.
I never hate a man enough to give him his diamonds back.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa

16.
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

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.
Try to take for a mate a person of your own neighborhood.
Hesiod

19.
My wife isn't married to me forever; she's married to me for good. That keeps me on my toes.
Pancoast, Mal

20.
A simple enough pleasure, surely, to have breakfast alone with one's husband, but how seldom married people in the midst of life achieve it.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

21.
The best part of married life is the fights. The rests is merely so.
Wilder, Thornton

22.
The betrothed and accepted lover has lost the wildest charms of his maiden by her acceptance. She was heaven while he pursued her, but she cannot be heaven if she stoops to one such as he!
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

23.
The day you marry, it is either kill or cure.
Proverb, Spanish

24.
Two souls and one thought, two hearts and one pulse.
Halen

25.
A man in love is incomplete until he has married -- then he's finished.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa

26.
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

27.
Marriage is a matter of give and take, but so far I haven't been able to find anybody who'll take what I have to give.
Daley, Cass

28.
Any intelligent woman who reads the marriage contract and then goes into it, deserves all the consequences.
Duncan, Isadora

29.
The best friend is likely to acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is based on the talent for friendship.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

30.
It's a sad house where the hen crows louder than the cock.
Proverb, Scottish

31.
When a man is ready to marry, he is often not too particular about the lady.
Eucharista Ward

32.
O curse of marriage, that we can call these delicate creatures ours, and not their appetites.
William Shakespeare

33.
I've sometimes thought of marrying, and then I've thought again.
Coward, Noel

34.
Who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor with the Lord.
Bible

35.
By this marriage, all little jealousies, which now seem great , and all great fears, which now import their dangers would then be nothing.
William Shakespeare

36.
Marriage is like a hot bath. Once you get used to it, it's not so hot.

37.
It doesn't much signify whom one marries, for one is sure to find out the next morning that it was someone else.
Rogers, Will

38.
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

39.
My marriage had its ups and downs like anyone's, but when it came down to it, I knew it was solid. I miss that sort of security, and that sort of connection with someone.
John Scalzi

40.
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.

41.
In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

42.
A little weeping, a little wheedling, a little self-degradation, a little careful use of our advantages, and then some man will say .Come, be my wife! With good looks and youth marriage is easy to attain. There are men enough; but a woman who has sold herself, even for a ring and a new name, need hold her skirt aside for no creature in the street. They both earn their bread in one way. Marriage for love is the most beautiful external symbol of the union of souls; marriage without it is the least clean traffic that defiles the world.
Schreiner, Olive

43.
If there was strife and contention in the home, very little else in life could compensate for it.
Lawana Blackwell

44.
If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.
Fuller, Thomas

45.
Whatever you may look like, marry a man your own age -- as your beauty fades, so will his eyesight.
Diller, Phyllis

46.
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

47.
Marriage isn't a process of prolonging the life of love, but of mummifying the corpse.
Wodehouse, Sir P(elham) G(renville)

48.
My wife and I were happy for twenty. Then we met!
Dangerfield, Rodney

49.
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
Lennon, John

50.
Marriage was all a woman's idea and for man's acceptance of the pretty yoke, it becomes us to be grateful.
Mcginley, Phyllis
