Marriage

The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality, but must live with a character.
- Vries, Peter De
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
The secret to a happy marriage is to tell your spouse everything, but the essentials.
Nelms, Cynthia

2.
I'm not a real movie star. I've still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
Will Rogers

3.
Matrimony is the high sea for which no compass has yet to be invented.
Heine, Heinrich

4.
I think men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry.
Rudner, Rita

5.
Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day.
Rooney, Mickey

6.
By this marriage, all little jealousies, which now seem great , and all great fears, which now import their dangers would then be nothing.
William Shakespeare

7.
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

8.
I think people really marry far too much; it is such a lottery after all, and for a poor woman a very doubtful happiness.
Victoria, Queen

9.
Every time a woman makes herself laugh at her husband's often-told jokes she betrays him. The man who looks at his woman and says What would I do without you? is already destroyed.
Greer, Germaine

10.
Marriage is the operation by which a woman's vanity and a man's egotism are extracted without an anaesthetic.
Rowland, Helen

11.
In taking out an insurance policy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, woman's premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, until death doth part.
Goldman, Emma

12.
Any man who married for money and got it. Earned it.

13.
I was so cold the other day, I almost got married.
Winters, Shelley

14.
Marriage. The state or condition of a community consisting of a master, a mistress and two slaves, making in all, two.
Bierce, Ambrose

15.
Be to their virtue very kind; be to their faults a little blind.
Prior, Matthew

16.
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid

17.
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La

18.
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

19.
Always get married early in the morning. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted a whole day.
Mickey Rooney

20.
The ancient saying is no heresy, hanging and wiving goes by destiny.
William Shakespeare

21.
Marriage is one long conversation, checkered by disputes.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

22.
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

23.
Never join with your friend when he abuses his horse or his wife, unless the one is to be sold and the other to be buried.
Colton, Charles Caleb

24.
I married the first man I ever kissed. When I tell this to my children they just about throw up.
Bush, Barbara

25.
Those that marry for money sell their liberty.
Proverb

26.
It doesn't much signify whom one marries, for one is sure to find out the next morning that it was someone else.
Rogers, Will

27.
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

28.
I married beneath me. All women do.
Astor, Lady Nancy

29.
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

30.
The man who says his wife can't take a joke forgets that she took him.

31.
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

32.
Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.
Graham, James

33.
Many a man in love with a dimple makes the mistake of marrying the whole girl.
Leacock, Stephen B.

34.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

35.
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

36.
I have wedded her, not bedded her; and sworn to make the'not'eternal.
William Shakespeare

37.
One of the best hearing aids a man can have is an attentive wife.
Marx, Groucho

38.
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

39.
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

40.
In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.
Bagnold, Enid

41.
Marriage is like a hot bath. Once you get used to it, it's not so hot.

42.
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

43.
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

44.
Men are April when they woo, December when they wed: maids are may when they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives.
William Shakespeare

45.
Marriage should be a duet-when one sings, the other claps.
Murray, Joe

46.
A marriage is no amusement but a solemn act, and generally a sad one.
Victoria, Queen

47.
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.
Mead, Margaret

48.
Long engagements give people the opportunity of finding out each other's character before marriage, which is never advisable.
Wilde, Oscar

49.
I am thinking of taking a fifth wife. Why not? Solomon had a thousand wives and he is a synonym for wisdom.
Barrymore, John

50.
To many women marriage is only this. It is merely a physical change impinging on their ordinary nature, leaving their mentality untouched, their self-possession intact. They are not burnt by even the red fire of physical passion - far less by the white fire of love.
Webb, Mary
