Motivational Quotes

Marriage

Deceive not thyself by over-expecting happiness in the married estate. Remember the nightingales which sing only some months in the spring, but commonly are silent when they have hatched their eggs, as if their mirth were turned into care for their young ones.
- Fuller, Thomas
Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.
Fuller, Thomas

2.
All married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn the art of making love. Good battle is objective and honest --never vicious or cruel. Good battle is healthy and constructive, and brings to a marriage the principle of equal partnership.
Landers, Ann

3.
There is a time for all things -- except marriage my dear.
Chatterton, Thomas

4.
In Hollywood a marriage is a success if it outlasts milk.
Rita Rudner

5.
In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

6.
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

7.
If you would marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid

8.
There's nothing like a Catholic wedding to make you wish life had a fast forward button.
Chopin, Daniel

9.
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

10.
A good marriage is like a casserole, only those responsible for it really know what goes in it.

11.
I'm not a real movie star. I've still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
Will Rogers

12.
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

13.
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

14.
If there be no great love in the beginning, yet heaven may decrease it upon better acquaintance, when we are married and have more occasion to know one another...upon familiarity will grow more contempt.
William Shakespeare

15.
A happy marriage perhaps represents the ideal of human relationship -- a setting in which each partner, while acknowledging the need of the other, feels free to be what he or she by nature is: a relationship in which instinct as well as intellect can find expression; in which giving and taking are equal; in which each accepts the other, and I confronts Thou.
Storr, Anthony

16.
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

17.
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

18.
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

19.
The concerts you enjoy together neighbors you annoy together children you destroy together that make marriage a joy
Sondheim, Stephen

20.
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

21.
The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality, but must live with a character.
Vries, Peter De

22.
Marriage is a great institution, but I'm not ready for an institution yet.
Mae West

23.
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

24.
God invented concubinage, Satan marriage.
Picabia, Francis

25.
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

26.
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.
Mignon McLaughlin

27.
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

28.
A good marriage would be between a blind wife and a deaf husband.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

29.
All marriages are mixed marriages.
Chantal Saperstein

30.
Marital Freedom: The liberty that allows a husband to do exactly that which his wife pleases.

31.
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for her. [Ephesians 5:25]
Bible

32.
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

33.
In the perfect wedlock, the man, I should say, is the head, but the woman the heart, with which he cannot dispense.
Ruckett

34.
Any young man who is unmarried at the age of twenty one is a menace to the community.
Young, Brigham

35.
Dude, marriage is the'get out of loneliness free'card in the Monopoly game of life.
Veronica Pare and Ferrett Steinmetz

36.
When a husband is embraced without affection, there must be some reason for it.
Hitopadesa

37.
The betrothed and accepted lover has lost the wildest charms of his maiden by her acceptance. She was heaven while he pursued her, but she cannot be heaven if she stoops to one such as he!
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

38.
When the blind lead the blind, no wonder they both fall into -- matrimony.
Farquhar, George

39.
Marriage is an act of will that signifies and involves a mutual gift, which unites the spouses and binds them to their eventual souls, with whom they make up a sole family --a domestic church.
John Paul II

40.
One man's folly is another man's wife.
Helen Rowland

41.
Whatever you may look like, marry a man your own age -- as your beauty fades, so will his eyesight.
Diller, Phyllis

42.
Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
Streisand, Barbara

43.
Two souls and one thought, two hearts and one pulse.
Halen

44.
'Tis safest in matrimony to begin with a little aversion.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

45.
You get married at twenty, you're going to be shocked who you're living with at thirty.
Peter Blake

46.
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

47.
If there was strife and contention in the home, very little else in life could compensate for it.
Lawana Blackwell

48.
Marriage is low down, but you spend the rest of your life paying for it.
Baskins

49.
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

50.
This would be a much better world if more married couples were as deeply in love as they are in debt.
Wilson, Earl
