Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
To marry unequally is to suffer equally.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

2.
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

3.
Love is blind -- marriage is the eye-opener.
Thomason, Pauline

4.
The mere idea of marriage, as a strong possibility, if not always nowadays a reasonable likelihood, existing to weaken the will by distracting its straight aim in the life of practically every young girl, is the simple secret of their confessed inferiority in men's pursuits and professions to-day.
Bolitho, William

5.
If a man works like a horse for his money, there are a lot of girls anxious to take him down the bridal path.
Allen, Marty

6.
Always get married early in the morning. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted a whole day.
Mickey Rooney

7.
If variety is the spice of life, marriage is the big can of leftover Spam.
Carson, Johnny

8.
Marriage, for a woman at least, hampers the two things that made life to me glorious -- friendship and learning.
Harrison, Jane

9.
I don't worry about terrorism. I was married for two years.
Kinison, Sam

10.
Plant and your spouse plants with you; weed and you weed alone.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

11.
A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love.
Pearl Buck

12.
The problem with marriage is that it ends every night after making love, and it must be rebuilt every morning before breakfast.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

13.
When a girl marries, she exchanges the attentions of all the other men of her acquaintance for the inattention of just one.
Rowland, Helen

14.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

15.
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

16.
Such is the common process of marriage. A youth and maiden exchange meeting by chance, or brought together by artifice, exchange glances, reciprocate civilities, go home, and dream of one another. Having little to divert attention, or diversify thought, they find themselves uneasy when they are apart, and therefore conclude that they shall be happy together. They marry, and discover what nothing but voluntary blindness had before concealed; they wear out life in altercations, and charge nature with cruelty.
Samuel Johnson

17.
Matrimony is the high sea for which no compass has yet to be invented.
Heine, Heinrich

18.
Be to their virtue very kind; be to their faults a little blind.
Prior, Matthew

19.
Nature admits of no permanence in the relation between man and woman. It is only man's egoism that wants to keep woman like some buried treasure. All endeavors to introduce permanence in love, the most changeable thing in this changeable human existence, have gone shipwreck in spite of religious ceremonies, vows, and legalities.
Sacher-Masoch, Leopold Von

20.
Men marry to make an end; women to make a beginning.
Dupuy, Alexis

21.
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
Gandhi, Mahatma

22.
The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality, but must live with a character.
Vries, Peter De

23.
Marrying a man is like buying something you've been admiring for a long time in a shop window. You may love it when you get it home, but it doesn't always go with everything else in the house.
Kerr, Jean

24.
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

25.
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

26.
All marriages are happy it's living together afterwards that causes all the problems.
Hull, Raymond

27.
When a man is ready to marry, he is often not too particular about the lady.
Eucharista Ward

28.
Those that marry for money sell their liberty.
Proverb

29.
Marriage is a great institution, but I'm not ready for an institution yet.
Mae West

30.
One of society's biggest problems today is that we've allowed relationships to be accepted as impermanent, particularly marriage.

31.
Dude, marriage is the'get out of loneliness free'card in the Monopoly game of life.
Veronica Pare and Ferrett Steinmetz

32.
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

33.
The best friend is likely to acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is based on the talent for friendship.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

34.
To be sure a stepmother to a girl is a different thing to a second wife to a man!
Gaskell, Elizabeth

35.
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

36.
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

37.
A good marriage would be between a blind wife and a deaf husband.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

38.
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

39.
The secret to a happy marriage is to tell your spouse everything, but the essentials.
Nelms, Cynthia

40.
There's a way of transferring funds that is even faster than electronic banking. It's called marriage.
Mcgannon, Donald H.

41.
When a wife has a good husband it is easily seen in her face.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

42.
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William

43.
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.

44.
The lion and the calf will lay down together, but the calf won't get much sleep..
Allen, Woody

45.
In Hollywood all the marriages are happy, it's trying to live together afterwards that causes all the problems.
Winters, Shelley

46.
In almost every marriage there is a selfish and an unselfish partner. A pattern is set up and soon becomes inflexible, of one person always making the demands and one person always giving way.
Murdoch, Iris

47.
Every marriage tends to consist of an aristocrat and a peasant. Of a teacher and a learner.
Updike, John

48.
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

49.
I married beneath me. All women do.
Astor, Lady Nancy

50.
Quarrels are the dowry which married folk bring one another.
Ovid
