Motivational Quotes
Marriage
Marriage, for a woman at least, hampers the two things that made life to me glorious -- friendship and learning.
Best Quotes about Marriage
We love in others what we lack in ourselves, and would be everything, but what we are.
Stoddard, Richard Henry
Plant and your spouse plants with you; weed and you weed alone.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
Marriage is like a hot bath. Once you get used to it, it's not so hot.
The conception of two people living together for twenty-five years without having a cross word suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
Alan Patrick Herbert
The secret to a happy marriage is to tell your spouse everything, but the essentials.
Nelms, Cynthia
To marry is to halve your rights and double your duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
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
Marrying is easy, it's housework that's hard.
Proverb
She is a wife who is the soul of her husband.
Hitopadesa
If variety is the spice of life, marriage is the big can of leftover Spam.
Carson, Johnny
There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends.
Homer
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
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
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
Marriage is a lottery, but you can't tear up your ticket if you lose.
Knowles, F. M.
He believes that marriage and a career don't mix. So after the wedding he plans to quit his job.
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La
I never hate a man enough to give him his diamonds back.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa
If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.
Fuller, Thomas
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
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
I grew up in a very large family in a very small house. I never slept alone until after I was married.
Grizzard, Lewis
Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. [Genesis 2:24]
Bible
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
Ziglar, Zig
I don't worry about terrorism. I was married for two years.
Kinison, Sam
One good husband is worth two good wives, for the scarcer things are, the more they are valued.
Franklin, Benjamin
All marriages are mixed marriages.
Chantal Saperstein
O curse of marriage, that we can call these delicate creatures ours, and not their appetites.
William Shakespeare
Marriage is more than four bare legs in a bed.
Akhtar, Hoshang N.
It takes two to make a marriage a success and only one to make it a failure.
Samuel, Herbert
My wife and I were happy for twenty. Then we met!
Dangerfield, Rodney
I'm not a real movie star. I've still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
Will Rogers
Marriage is the operation by which a woman's vanity and a man's egotism are extracted without an anaesthetic.
Rowland, Helen
Matrimony is the high sea for which no compass has yet to be invented.
Heine, Heinrich
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
You can never be happily married to another until you get a divorce from yourself. A successful marriage demands a certain death to self.
Mccant, Jerry
I used to believe that marriage would diminish me, reduce my options. That you had to be someone less to live with someone else when, of course, you have to be someone more.
Candice Bergen
Marriage brings one into fatal connection with custom and tradition, and traditions and customs are like the wind and weather, altogether incalculable.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren
The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds -- they mature slowly.
Vries, Peter De
One of the best hearing aids a man can have is an attentive wife.
Marx, Groucho
When you get married you forget about kissing other women.
Boone, Pat
Bigamy is having one husband too many. Monogamy is the same.
Jong, Erica
Marriage is the best state for man in general, and every man is a worst man in proportion to the level he is unfit for marriage.
Johnson, Samuel
Never marry a man who hates his mother, because he'll end up hating you.
Bennett, Jill
Married couples resemble a pair of scissors, often moving in opposite directions, yet punishing anyone who gets in between them.
Smith, Sydney
A great marriage is not when the'perfect couple'comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
Dave Meurer
Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave.
Luther, Martin
Those that marry for money sell their liberty.
Proverb
No man was ever shot by his wife while doing the dishes.
I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.
Rita Rudner
