Marriage

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
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.
Bagnold, Enid

2.
A marriage is a series of friendships. Love serves as its underlying theme. Friendships provide it with the new challenges around which the relationship further develops. Each type of friendship with ones partner comes into being, rises to a peak of enthusiasm, and then wanes away in our cedar chest of sentimental values. Every once in a while we go to the chest and draw out a friendship item to give us a shot in the arm. Then we put it away till another day.

3.
Marriage is a mistake every man should make.
Jessel, George

4.
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

5.
If there be no great love in the beginning, yet heaven may decrease it upon better acquaintance, when we are married and have more occasion to know one another...upon familiarity will grow more contempt.
William Shakespeare

6.
Once you are married, there is nothing for you, not even suicide, but to be good.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

7.
He believes that marriage and a career don't mix. So after the wedding he plans to quit his job.

8.
The sum and substance of female education in America, as in England, is training women to consider marriage as the sole object in life, and to pretend that they do not think so.
Martineau, Harriet

9.
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
Lennon, John

10.
No man was ever shot by his wife while doing the dishes.

11.
That married couples can live together day after day is a miracle the Vatican has overlooked.
Cosby, Bill

12.
God invented concubinage, Satan marriage.
Picabia, Francis

13.
Never marry a man who hates his mother, because he'll end up hating you.
Bennett, Jill

14.
Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.
Graham, James

15.
Any man who married for money and got it. Earned it.

16.
Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds outside desperate to get in, and those inside desperate to get out.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

17.
In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

18.
I've been married so long, I am on my third bottle of Tabasco sauce.
Vass, Susan

19.
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

20.
Well married a person has wings, poorly married shackles.
Beecher, Henry Ward

21.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

22.
I am thinking of taking a fifth wife. Why not? Solomon had a thousand wives and he is a synonym for wisdom.
Barrymore, John

23.
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

24.
If there was strife and contention in the home, very little else in life could compensate for it.
Lawana Blackwell

25.
I don't worry about terrorism. I was married for two years.
Kinison, Sam

26.
Marriage is the torment of one, the felicity of two, the strife and enmity of three.
Irving, Washington

27.
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

28.
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

29.
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

30.
Love is blind -- marriage is the eye-opener.
Thomason, Pauline

31.
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

32.
The secret to a happy marriage is to tell your spouse everything, but the essentials.
Nelms, Cynthia

33.
To marry unequally is to suffer equally.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

34.
We often marry in despair, so that we repent of it all our life after.
Moliere

35.
If a man works like a horse for his money, there are a lot of girls anxious to take him down the bridal path.
Allen, Marty

36.
How many young hearts have revealed the fact that what they had been trained to imagine the highest earthly felicity was but the beginning of care, disappointment, and sorrow, and often led to the extremity of mental and physical suffering.
Beecher, Catharine Esther

37.
If you would marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid

38.
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.

39.
What is right for one couple is wrong for another. I would say that there are many more important factors to a happy marriage.
Elizabeth Aston

40.
It takes two to make a marriage a success and only one to make it a failure.
Samuel, Herbert

41.
Many a man in love with a dimple makes the mistake of marrying the whole girl.
Leacock, Stephen B.

42.
A happy marriage perhaps represents the ideal of human relationship -- a setting in which each partner, while acknowledging the need of the other, feels free to be what he or she by nature is: a relationship in which instinct as well as intellect can find expression; in which giving and taking are equal; in which each accepts the other, and I confronts Thou.
Storr, Anthony

43.
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

44.
Love and marriage, love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage. Dad was told by mother. You can't have one without the other.
Cahn, Sammy

45.
You, that are going to be married, think things can never be done too fast: but we that are old, and know what we are about, must elope methodically, madam.
Goldsmith, Oliver

46.
A great marriage is not when the'perfect couple'comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
Dave Meurer

47.
When you get married you forget about kissing other women.
Boone, Pat

48.
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

49.
I think like any marriage, especially when you've had divorced parents like myself, you'd want to try even harder to make it work.
Diana, Princess of Wales

50.
When a wife has a good husband it is easily seen in her face.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
