Marriage

Marriage, for a woman at least, hampers the two things that made life to me glorious -- friendship and learning.
- Harrison, Jane
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
Though I want a kingdom, yet in marriage I may not prove inferior to yourself.
William Shakespeare

2.
As a general thing, when the woman wears the pants in the family, she has a good right to them.
Billings, Josh

3.
Each coming together of man and wife, even if they have been mated for many years, should be a fresh adventure; each winning should necessitate a fresh wooing.
Stopes, Marie Carmichael

4.
Whatever you may look like, marry a man your own age -- as your beauty fades, so will his eyesight.
Diller, Phyllis

5.
Happiness just wasn't part of the job description back then. You tried to find a helpmate to keep the cold wind and dogs at bay. Happiness just wasn't part of the equation. Survival was.
Robin Green

6.
A little weeping, a little wheedling, a little self-degradation, a little careful use of our advantages, and then some man will say .Come, be my wife! With good looks and youth marriage is easy to attain. There are men enough; but a woman who has sold herself, even for a ring and a new name, need hold her skirt aside for no creature in the street. They both earn their bread in one way. Marriage for love is the most beautiful external symbol of the union of souls; marriage without it is the least clean traffic that defiles the world.
Schreiner, Olive

7.
Compromise: An amiable arrangement between husband and wife whereby they agree to let her have her own way.

8.
The man who says his wife can't take a joke forgets that she took him.

9.
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

10.
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

11.
If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

12.
Married life requires shared mystery even when all the facts are known.
Ford, Richard

13.
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.

14.
Marriage is the torment of one, the felicity of two, the strife and enmity of three.
Irving, Washington

15.
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

16.
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William

17.
Marriage is the death of hope.
Allen, Woody

18.
Marrying to increase love is like gaming to become rich; alas, you only lose what little stock you had before.
Wycherley, William

19.
Try to take for a mate a person of your own neighborhood.
Hesiod

20.
In the perfect wedlock, the man, I should say, is the head, but the woman the heart, with which he cannot dispense.
Ruckett

21.
In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

22.
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

23.
Two souls and one thought, two hearts and one pulse.
Halen

24.
Never marry for money. Ye'll borrow it cheaper.
Proverb, Scottish

25.
The day you marry, it is either kill or cure.
Proverb, Spanish

26.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

27.
We were happily married for eight months. Unfortunately, we were married for four and a half years.
Nick Faldo

28.
Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers. [1 Peter 3:7]
Bible

29.
God invented concubinage, Satan marriage.
Picabia, Francis

30.
A good marriage is at least 80 percent good luck in finding the right person at the right time. The rest is trust.
Newman, Nanette

31.
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

32.
I'd marry again if I found a man who had 15 million and would sign over half of it to me before the marriage and guarantee he'd be dead within a year.
Davis, Bette

33.
Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day.
Rooney, Mickey

34.
Well married a person has wings, poorly married shackles.
Beecher, Henry Ward

35.
Quarrels are the dowry which married folk bring one another.
Ovid

36.
Whether a fellow winds up with a nest egg or a goose egg depends a heap on the kind of chick he married.

37.
I hate work. That's why I got married.
Bundy, Peg

38.
Be to their virtue very kind; be to their faults a little blind.
Prior, Matthew

39.
Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave.
Luther, Martin

40.
I am thinking of taking a fifth wife. Why not? Solomon had a thousand wives and he is a synonym for wisdom.
Barrymore, John

41.
The concerts you enjoy together neighbors you annoy together children you destroy together that make marriage a joy
Sondheim, Stephen

42.
I have wedded her, not bedded her; and sworn to make the'not'eternal.
William Shakespeare

43.
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage: which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

44.
He who marries for money earns it.
Proverb, Yiddish

45.
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

46.
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

47.
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

48.
The value of marriage is not that adults produce children, but that children produce adults.
Vries, Peter De

49.
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
Gandhi, Mahatma

50.
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
