Motivational Quotes
Marriage
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.

Best Quotes about Marriage
Any young man who is unmarried at the age of twenty one is a menace to the community.
Young, Brigham
Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up.
Barth, Joseph
Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.
Kathleen Norris
Incompatibility. In matrimony a similarity of tastes, particularly the taste for domination.
Bierce, Ambrose
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
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
Marriages are made in heaven and consummated on Earth.
Lyly, John
Love is moral even without legal marriage, but marriage is immoral without love.
Key, Ellen
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La
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
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
Marital Freedom: The liberty that allows a husband to do exactly that which his wife pleases.
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
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
To marry is to halve your rights and double your duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
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
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William
Always get married early in the morning. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted a whole day.
Mickey Rooney
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
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
Where there is marriage without love, there will be love without marriage.
Franklin, Benjamin
Though we marry as adults, we don't marry adults. We marry children who have grown up and still rejoice in being children, especially if we're creative.
Diane Ackerman
Long engagements give people the opportunity of finding out each other's character before marriage, which is never advisable.
Wilde, Oscar
Marrying is easy, it's housework that's hard.
Proverb
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.
Mead, Margaret
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage: which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Though I want a kingdom, yet in marriage I may not prove inferior to yourself.
William Shakespeare
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.
Men marry to make an end; women to make a beginning.
Dupuy, Alexis
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for her. [Ephesians 5:25]
Bible
I would rather be a beggar and single than a queen and married.
Elizabeth I
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.
Mignon McLaughlin
The value of marriage is not that adults produce children, but that children produce adults.
Vries, Peter De
Many a man in love with a dimple makes the mistake of marrying the whole girl.
Leacock, Stephen B.
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
Only one marriage I regret. I remember after I got that marriage license I went across from the license bureau to a bar for a drink. The bartender said, What will you have, sir? And I said, A glass of hemlock.
Hemingway, Ernest
Never say that marriage has more of joy than pain.
Euripides
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
It's a sad house where the hen crows louder than the cock.
Proverb, Scottish
Progress of a marriage: There was a time when you couldn't make me happy. Now the time has come when you can make me unhappy.
Layton, Irving
O curse of marriage, that we can call these delicate creatures ours, and not their appetites.
William Shakespeare
God invented concubinage, Satan marriage.
Picabia, Francis
Weeping bride, laughing wife, laughing bride, weeping wife.
Proverb, German
Marrying to increase love is like gaming to become rich; alas, you only lose what little stock you had before.
Wycherley, William
I think men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry.
Rudner, Rita
Marriage is that relation between man and woman in which the independence is equal, the dependence mutual, and the obligation reciprocal.
Anspacher, Louis K.
All marriages are happy it's living together afterwards that causes all the problems.
Hull, Raymond
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid
A man in love is incomplete until he has married -- then he's finished.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa
