Best Quotes about Marriage

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

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

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

Pearl Buck

Plant and your spouse plants with you; weed and you weed alone.

Rousseau, Jean Jacques

By this marriage, all little jealousies, which now seem great , and all great fears, which now import their dangers would then be nothing.

William Shakespeare

An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.

Franklin, Benjamin

We love in others what we lack in ourselves, and would be everything, but what we are.

Stoddard, Richard Henry

The best part of married life is the fights. The rests is merely so.

Wilder, Thornton

O curse of marriage, that we can call these delicate creatures ours, and not their appetites.

William Shakespeare

10.

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

Bible

11.

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

12.

It takes two to make a marriage a success and only one to make it a failure.

Samuel, Herbert

13.

I will fasten on this sleeve of thine: thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine.

William Shakespeare

14.

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

15.

Choose your wife as you wish your children to be.

Proverb

16.

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

Wilson, Earl

After marriage, a woman's sight becomes so keen that she can see right through her husband without looking at him, and a man's so dull that he can look right through his wife without seeing her.

Rowland, Helen

Duncan, Isadora

22.

Who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor with the Lord.

Bible

23.

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

24.

'Tis safest in matrimony to begin with a little aversion.

Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

25.

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

Allen, Woody

26.

Though I want a kingdom, yet in marriage I may not prove inferior to yourself.

William Shakespeare

27.

Married life requires shared mystery even when all the facts are known.

Ford, Richard

28.

As a general thing, when the woman wears the pants in the family, she has a good right to them.

Billings, Josh

29.

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

30.

That married couples can live together day after day is a miracle the Vatican has overlooked.

The dread of loneliness is greater than the fear of bondage, so we get married.

Connolly, Cyril

36.

Marriage should be a duet-when one sings, the other claps.

Murray, Joe

37.

You'll repent if you marry, and repent if you don't.

Proverb

38.

If you would marry suitably, marry your equal.

Ovid

39.

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

Hitopadesa

40.

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

Victoria, Queen

41.

Marriage. It's like a cultural hand-rail. It links folks to the past and guides them to the future.

Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

42.

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

I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person.

Mead, Margaret
