Best Quotes about Marriage
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
No man was ever shot by his wife while doing the dishes.
Compromise: An amiable arrangement between husband and wife whereby they agree to let her have her own way.
I've sometimes thought of marrying, and then I've thought again.
Coward, Noel
When a wife has a good husband it is easily seen in her face.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
I have come to the conclusion never again to think of marrying, and for this reason, I can never be satisfied with anyone who would be blockhead enough to have me.
Lincoln, Abraham
I will fasten on this sleeve of thine: thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine.
William Shakespeare
Marriage is the death of hope.
Allen, Woody
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La
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.
Marrying to increase love is like gaming to become rich; alas, you only lose what little stock you had before.
Wycherley, William
Marriage should be a duet-when one sings, the other claps.
Murray, Joe
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
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.
Mead, Margaret
A marriage without conflicts is almost as inconceivable as a nation without crises.
Maurois, Andre
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
One of society's biggest problems today is that we've allowed relationships to be accepted as impermanent, particularly marriage.
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
She is a wife who is the soul of her husband.
Hitopadesa
Nearly all marriages, even happy ones, are mistakes: in the sense that almost certainly (in a more perfect world, or even with a little more care in this very imperfect one) both partners might be found more suitable mates. But the real soul-mate is the one you are actually married to.
J. R. R. Tolkien
So that ends my first experience of matrimony, which I always thought a highly over-rated performance.
Duncan, Isadora
Love is moral even without legal marriage, but marriage is immoral without love.
Key, Ellen
It resembles a pair of shears, so joined that they cannot be separated, often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing anyone who comes between them.
Smith, Sydney
[Marriage is] a world-without-end bargain.
William Shakespeare
Dude, marriage is the'get out of loneliness free'card in the Monopoly game of life.
Veronica Pare and Ferrett Steinmetz
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
I'm not a real movie star. I've still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
Will Rogers
After seven years of marriage, I'm sure of two things -- first, never wallpaper together, and second, you'll need two bathrooms.. both for her. The rest is a mystery, but a mystery I love to be involved in.
Miller, Dennis
When a girl marries, she exchanges the attentions of all the other men of her acquaintance for the inattention of just one.
Rowland, Helen
A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love.
Pearl Buck
Man's best possession is a sympathetic wife.
Euripides
Marriage is like wine. It is not properly judged until the second glass.
Jerrold, Douglas William
'Tis safest in matrimony to begin with a little aversion.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley
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
Instead of getting married again. I'm going to find a woman I don't like and give her a house.
Grizzard, Lewis
Marriage is like a violin. After the music is over, you still have the strings.
Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave.
Luther, Martin
Try praising your wife, even if it does frighten her at first.
Sunday, Billy
Say what you will, making marriage work is a woman's business. The institution was invented to do her homage; it was contrived for her protection. Unless she accepts it as such --as a beautiful, bountiful, but quite unequal association --the going will be hard indeed.
Mcginley, Phyllis
Incompatibility. In matrimony a similarity of tastes, particularly the taste for domination.
Bierce, Ambrose
Marital Freedom: The liberty that allows a husband to do exactly that which his wife pleases.
Well married a person has wings, poorly married shackles.
Beecher, Henry Ward
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
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
We were happily married for eight months. Unfortunately, we were married for four and a half years.
Nick Faldo
The best part of married life is the fights. The rests is merely so.
Wilder, Thornton
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
Gandhi, Mahatma
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
The world has suffered more from the ravages of ill-advised marriages than from virginity.
Bierce, Ambrose
Marriage, for a woman at least, hampers the two things that made life to me glorious -- friendship and learning.
Harrison, Jane
