- Johnson, Samuel

Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

Bierce, Ambrose

Marriage is a lottery in which men stake their liberty and women their happiness.
Rieux, Madame De

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

Only as far as a man is happily married to himself is he fit for married life and family life in general.
Novalis

Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.
Kathleen Norris

All tragedies are finished by a death, all comedies by a marriage.
Byron, Lord

Americans, who make more of marrying for love than any other people, also break up more or their marriages, but the figure reflects not so much the failure of love as the determination not to live without it.
Hunt, Morton

17.
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

18.
A marriage based on full confidence, based on complete and unqualified frankness on both sides; they are not keeping anything back; there's no deception underneath it all. If I might so put it, it's an agreement for the mutual forgiveness of sin.
Ibsen, Henrik

19.

Mencken, H. L.

20.
Marriage always demands the greatest understanding of the art of insincerity possible between two human beings.
Baum, Vicki

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

26.
We cannot do without it, and yet we disgrace and vilify the same. It may be compared to a cage, the birds without despair to get in, and those within despair to get out.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

27.
A marriage is no amusement but a solemn act, and generally a sad one.
Victoria, Queen

28.
Try to take for a mate a person of your own neighborhood.
Hesiod

29.
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

30.
Marriage is socialism among two people.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

31.
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.
Mead, Margaret

32.
Compromise: An amiable arrangement between husband and wife whereby they agree to let her have her own way.

33.
I wonder, among all the tangles of this mortal coil, which one contains tighter knots to undo, and consequently suggests more tugging, and pain, and diversified elements of misery, than the marriage tie.
Edith Wharton

34.
A marriage without conflicts is almost as inconceivable as a nation without crises.
Maurois, Andre

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

37.
Remember, that if thou marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which perchance will neither last nor please thee one year; and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all; for the desire dieth when it is attained, and the affection perisheth when it is satisfied.
Sir Walter Raleigh
