Motivational Quotes
Marriage
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.

Best Quotes about Marriage
There is no more lovely, friendly, and charming relationship, communion, or company than a good marriage.
Luther, Martin
Those that marry for money sell their liberty.
Proverb
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
I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.
Rita Rudner
To keep your marriage brimming, with love in the wedding cup, whenever you're wrong, admit it; whenever you're right, shut up.
Nash, Ogden
When a husband is embraced without affection, there must be some reason for it.
Hitopadesa
It's a sad house where the hen crows louder than the cock.
Proverb, Scottish
When the blind lead the blind, no wonder they both fall into -- matrimony.
Farquhar, George
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
I'm certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.
Dobson, Dr. James C.
My wife isn't married to me forever; she's married to me for good. That keeps me on my toes.
Pancoast, Mal
Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.
Graham, James
I'm going to marry a Jewish woman because I like the idea of getting up Sunday morning and going to the deli.
Fox, Michael J.
If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.
Fuller, Thomas
He believes that marriage and a career don't mix. So after the wedding he plans to quit his job.
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
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
Choose your wife as you wish your children to be.
Proverb
The man who says his wife can't take a joke forgets that she took him.
Whether a fellow winds up with a nest egg or a goose egg depends a heap on the kind of chick he married.
The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds -- they mature slowly.
Vries, Peter De
Sensual pleasures have the fleeting brilliance of a comet; a happy marriage has the tranquillity of a lovely sunset.
Landers, Ann
The horror of wedlock, the most appalling, the most loathsome of all the bonds humankind has devised for its own discomfort and degradation.
Sade, Marquis De
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William
Marriage is a mistake every man should make.
Jessel, George
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
There is only one thing for a man to do who is married to a woman who enjoys spending money, and that is enjoy earning it.
Nash, Ogden
When a match has equal partners then I fear not.
Aeschylus
I think men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry.
Rudner, Rita
Love is blind -- marriage is the eye-opener.
Thomason, Pauline
This would be a much better world if more married couples were as deeply in love as they are in debt.
Wilson, Earl
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
Lennon, John
On the whole, the great success of marriage in the States is due partly to the fact that no American man is ever idle, and partly to the fact that no American wife is considered responsible for the quality of her husband's dinners.
Wilde, Oscar
I tended to place my wife under a pedestal.
Woody Allen
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
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.
If it weren't for marriage, men and women would have to fight with total strangers.
Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day.
Rooney, Mickey
A great marriage is not when the'perfect couple'comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
Dave Meurer
The deep, deep peace of the double-bed after the hurly-burly of the chaise-lounge.
Campbell, Mrs Patrick
Marrying to increase love is like gaming to become rich; alas, you only lose what little stock you had before.
Wycherley, William
Marriage. It's like a cultural hand-rail. It links folks to the past and guides them to the future.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
I have wedded her, not bedded her; and sworn to make the'not'eternal.
William Shakespeare
Instead of getting married again. I'm going to find a woman I don't like and give her a house.
Grizzard, Lewis
To marry a man out of pity is folly; and, if you think you are going to influence the kind of fellow who has never had a chance, poor devil, you are profoundly mistaken. One can only influence the strong characters in life, not the weak; and it is the height of vanity to suppose that you can make an honest man of anyone.
Asquith, Margot
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.
Be to their virtue very kind; be to their faults a little blind.
Prior, Matthew
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
Bigamy is having one husband too many. Monogamy is the same.
Jong, Erica
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
