Best Quotes about Marriage
The lion and the calf will lay down together, but the calf won't get much sleep..
Allen, Woody
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
I hate to be a failure. I hate and regret the failure of my marriages. I would gladly give all my millions for just one lasting marital success.
Getty, J. Paul
Never marry for money. Ye'll borrow it cheaper.
Proverb, Scottish
Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.
Kathleen Norris
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
Marriage is one long conversation, checkered by disputes.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
Those that marry for money sell their liberty.
Proverb
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage: which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
To marry unequally is to suffer equally.
Amiel, Henri Frederic
Whether a fellow winds up with a nest egg or a goose egg depends a heap on the kind of chick he married.
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
Gandhi, Mahatma
I tended to place my wife under a pedestal.
Woody Allen
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
If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
A good marriage would be between a blind wife and a deaf husband.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Sensual pleasures have the fleeting brilliance of a comet; a happy marriage has the tranquillity of a lovely sunset.
Landers, Ann
If I ever marry it will be on a sudden impulse, as a man shoots himself.
Mencken, H. L.
Marriage brings one into fatal connection with custom and tradition, and traditions and customs are like the wind and weather, altogether incalculable.
Kierkegaard, S°ren
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
Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day.
Rooney, Mickey
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for her. [Ephesians 5:25]
Bible
We often marry in despair, so that we repent of it all our life after.
Moliere
When you get married you forget about kissing other women.
Boone, Pat
Any one must see at a glance that if men and women marry those whom they do not love, they must love those whom they do not marry.
Martineau, Harriet
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
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
This would be a much better world if more married couples were as deeply in love as they are in debt.
Wilson, Earl
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
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
Being married gives one one's position like nothing else can.
Victoria, Queen
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
Bigamy is having one husband too many. Monogamy is the same.
Jong, Erica
There is no observation more frequently made by such as employ themselves in surveying the conduct of mankind, than that marriage, though the dictate of nature, and the institution of Providence, is yet very often the cause of misery, and that those who enter into that state can seldom forbear to express their repentance, and their envy of those whom either chance or caution hath withheld from it.
Samuel Johnson
Often the difference between a successful marriage and a mediocre one consists of leaving about three or four things a day unsaid.
Miller, Harlan
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
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
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid
A marriage based on full confidence, based on complete and unqualified frankness on both sides; they are not keeping anything back; there's no deception underneath it all. If I might so put it, it's an agreement for the mutual forgiveness of sin.
Ibsen, Henrik
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.
Mignon McLaughlin
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La
'Tis safest in matrimony to begin with a little aversion.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley
I never hate a man enough to give him his diamonds back.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa
Marriage is socialism among two people.
Ehrenreich, Barbara
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
Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.
Graham, James
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.
The dread of loneliness is greater than the fear of bondage, so we get married.
Connolly, Cyril
We were happily married for eight months. Unfortunately, we were married for four and a half years.
Nick Faldo
