Best Quotes about Marriage
It's not the men in my life that counts, it's the life in my men.
West, Mae
When widows exclaim loudly against second marriages, I would always lay a wager that the man, if not the wedding day, is absolutely fixed on.
Fielding, Henry
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
Try praising your wife, even if it does frighten her at first.
Sunday, Billy
There is a time for all things -- except marriage my dear.
Chatterton, Thomas
That married couples can live together day after day is a miracle the Vatican has overlooked.
Cosby, Bill
He believes that marriage and a career don't mix. So after the wedding he plans to quit his job.
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
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
One of society's biggest problems today is that we've allowed relationships to be accepted as impermanent, particularly marriage.
I've sometimes thought of marrying, and then I've thought again.
Coward, Noel
A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short.
Maurois, Andre
Marriage is low down, but you spend the rest of your life paying for it.
Baskins
Wasn't marriage, like life, unstimulating and unprofitable and somewhat empty when too well ordered and protected and guarded? Wasn't it finer, more splendid, more nourishing, when it was, like life itself, a mixture of the sordid and the magnificent; of mud and stars; of earth and flowers; of love and hate and laughter and tears and ugliness and beauty and hurt?
Ferber, Edna
We often marry in despair, so that we repent of it all our life after.
Moliere
O curse of marriage, that we can call these delicate creatures ours, and not their appetites.
William Shakespeare
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
There's nothing like a Catholic wedding to make you wish life had a fast forward button.
Chopin, Daniel
A man in love is incomplete until he has married -- then he's finished.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa
All marriages are mixed marriages.
Chantal Saperstein
Saw a wedding in the church. It was strange to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition.
Pepys, Samuel
Bigamy is having one husband too many. Monogamy is the same.
Jong, Erica
Two such as you with such a master speed cannot be parted nor be swept away from one another once you are agreed that life is only life forevermore together wing to wing and oar to oar.
Frost, Robert
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
No man was ever shot by his wife while doing the dishes.
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
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
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
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
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
Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up.
Barth, Joseph
Once you are married, there is nothing for you, not even suicide, but to be good.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
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
The deep, deep peace of the double-bed after the hurly-burly of the chaise-lounge.
Campbell, Mrs Patrick
Marriages are made in heaven and consummated on Earth.
Lyly, John
If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
She is a wife who is the soul of her husband.
Hitopadesa
To be sure a stepmother to a girl is a different thing to a second wife to a man!
Gaskell, Elizabeth
Any young man who is unmarried at the age of twenty one is a menace to the community.
Young, Brigham
If it weren't for marriage, men and women would have to fight with total strangers.
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.
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
We cannot do without it, and yet we disgrace and vilify the same. It may be compared to a cage, the birds without despair to get in, and those within despair to get out.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
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
Marriage, for a woman at least, hampers the two things that made life to me glorious -- friendship and learning.
Harrison, Jane
Marriage isn't a word... it's a sentence.
A successful marriage is an edifice that must be rebuilt every day.
Andre Maurois
By all means marry. If you get a good wife you will become happy, and if you get a bad one you will become a philosopher.
Socrates
The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds -- they mature slowly.
Vries, Peter De
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
