Marriage

Like everything which is not the involuntary result of fleeting emotion but the creation of time and will, any marriage, happy or unhappy, is infinitely more interesting than any romance, however passionate.
- Auden, W. H.
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
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

2.
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

3.
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

4.
When I meet a man I ask myself,'Is this the man I want my children to spend their weekends with?'
Rita Rudner

5.
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

6.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

7.
To keep your marriage brimming, with love in the wedding cup, whenever you're wrong, admit it; whenever you're right, shut up.
Nash, Ogden

8.
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.

9.
Marriage is a matter of give and take, but so far I haven't been able to find anybody who'll take what I have to give.
Daley, Cass

10.
Whether a fellow winds up with a nest egg or a goose egg depends a heap on the kind of chick he married.

11.
In Hollywood a marriage is a success if it outlasts milk.
Rita Rudner

12.
All tragedies are finished by a death, all comedies by a marriage.
Byron, Lord

13.
Any intelligent woman who reads the marriage contract and then goes into it, deserves all the consequences.
Duncan, Isadora

14.
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William

15.
Weeping bride, laughing wife, laughing bride, weeping wife.
Proverb, German

16.
My marriage had its ups and downs like anyone's, but when it came down to it, I knew it was solid. I miss that sort of security, and that sort of connection with someone.
John Scalzi

17.
There's a way of transferring funds that is even faster than electronic banking. It's called marriage.
Mcgannon, Donald H.

18.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half-shut afterwards.
Franklin, Benjamin

19.
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La

20.
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

21.
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

22.
Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day.
Rooney, Mickey

23.
Polygamy is an endeavor to get more out of life than there is in it.
Hubbard, Elbert

24.
Marriage: A ceremony in which rings are put on the finger of the lady and through the nose of the gentleman.
Spencer, Herbert

25.
One of society's biggest problems today is that we've allowed relationships to be accepted as impermanent, particularly marriage.

26.
For it is mutual trust, even more than mutual interest that holds human associations together. Our friends seldom profit us but they make us feel safe. Marriage is a scheme to accomplish exactly that same end.
Mencken, H. L.

27.
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

28.
Marriage was all a woman's idea and for man's acceptance of the pretty yoke, it becomes us to be grateful.
Mcginley, Phyllis

29.
Marital Freedom: The liberty that allows a husband to do exactly that which his wife pleases.

30.
I married the first man I ever kissed. When I tell this to my children they just about throw up.
Bush, Barbara

31.
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
Ziglar, Zig

32.
Marriage should be a duet -- when one sings, the other claps. Joe Murray The only way to make a man trustworthy is to trust him.
Stimson, Henry Lewis

33.
I'm certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.
Dobson, Dr. James C.

34.
Marriage always demands the greatest understanding of the art of insincerity possible between two human beings.
Baum, Vicki

35.
There is a rhythm to the ending of a marriage just like the rhythm of a courtship --only backward. You try to start again but get into blaming over and over. Finally you are both worn out, exhausted, hopeless. Then lawyers are called in to pick clean the corpses. The death has occurred much earlier.
Jong, Erica

36.
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for her. [Ephesians 5:25]
Bible

37.
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

38.
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid

39.
If I ever marry it will be on a sudden impulse, as a man shoots himself.

Knowles, F. M.

41.
Dude, marriage is the'get out of loneliness free'card in the Monopoly game of life.
Veronica Pare and Ferrett Steinmetz

42.
In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

43.
If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.
Fuller, Thomas

44.
My wife isn't married to me forever; she's married to me for good. That keeps me on my toes.
Pancoast, Mal

45.
Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who cannot sleep with window shut, and a woman who cannot sleep with the window open.
Nash, Ogden

46.
Our marriage is like anybody's marriage, It goes through ups and downs. It's a little garden that you have to tend all the time. When we're home, it's not like we walk around all dolled up going, We are celebrities! We are famous! I change diapers. I clean up dog doo.
Willis, Bruce

47.
Whatever you may look like, marry a man your own age -- as your beauty fades, so will his eyesight.
Diller, Phyllis

48.
One good husband is worth two good wives, for the scarcer things are, the more they are valued.
Franklin, Benjamin

49.
