Marriage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Marriage

1.
Sensual pleasures have the fleeting brilliance of a comet; a happy marriage has the tranquillity of a lovely sunset.
Landers, Ann

2.
A man in love is incomplete until he has married -- then he's finished.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa

3.
Never join with your friend when he abuses his horse or his wife, unless the one is to be sold and the other to be buried.
Colton, Charles Caleb

4.
It's a sad house where the hen crows louder than the cock.
Proverb, Scottish

5.
If variety is the spice of life, marriage is the big can of leftover Spam.
Carson, Johnny

6.
The value of marriage is not that adults produce children, but that children produce adults.
Vries, Peter De

7.
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William

8.
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage: which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

9.
There is a time for all things -- except marriage my dear.
Chatterton, Thomas

10.
Marriage brings one into fatal connection with custom and tradition, and traditions and customs are like the wind and weather, altogether incalculable.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

11.
One of society's biggest problems today is that we've allowed relationships to be accepted as impermanent, particularly marriage.

12.
When a girl marries, she exchanges the attentions of all the other men of her acquaintance for the inattention of just one.
Rowland, Helen

13.
Three things drive a man outdoors; smoke, a leaking roof and a scolding wife.
Proverb

14.
I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon and a cat that comes home late at night.
Corelli, Marie

15.
The curse which lies upon marriage is that too often the individuals are joined in their weakness rather than in their strength --each asking from the other instead of finding pleasure in giving. It is even more deceptive to dream of gaining through the child a plenitude, a warmth, a value, which one is unable to create for oneself; the child brings joy only to the woman who is capable of disinterestedly desiring the happiness of another, to one who without being wrapped up in self seeks to transcend her own existence.
Beauvoir, Simone De

16.
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid

17.
In Hollywood all the marriages are happy, it's trying to live together afterwards that causes all the problems.
Winters, Shelley

18.
Though I want a kingdom, yet in marriage I may not prove inferior to yourself.
William Shakespeare

19.
Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state.
Kathleen Norris

20.
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

21.
Before marriage, a man will go home and lie awake all night thinking about something you said; after marriage, he'll go to sleep before you finish saying it.
Rowland, Helen

22.
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

23.
I will fasten on this sleeve of thine: thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine.
William Shakespeare

24.
Your marriage moves toward a state of isolation. Unless you lovingly and energetically nurture your marriage, you will begin to drift away from your mate.
Rainey, Dennis

25.
Whether a fellow winds up with a nest egg or a goose egg depends a heap on the kind of chick he married.

26.
Marriage is the death of hope.
Allen, Woody

27.
We love in others what we lack in ourselves, and would be everything, but what we are.
Stoddard, Richard Henry

28.
One of the best hearing aids a man can have is an attentive wife.
Marx, Groucho

29.
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

30.
Marriage isn't a process of prolonging the life of love, but of mummifying the corpse.
Wodehouse, Sir P(elham) G(renville)

31.
Nature admits of no permanence in the relation between man and woman. It is only man's egoism that wants to keep woman like some buried treasure. All endeavors to introduce permanence in love, the most changeable thing in this changeable human existence, have gone shipwreck in spite of religious ceremonies, vows, and legalities.
Sacher-Masoch, Leopold Von

32.
I married beneath me. All women do.
Astor, Lady Nancy

33.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Franklin, Benjamin

34.
There's nothing like a Catholic wedding to make you wish life had a fast forward button.
Chopin, Daniel

35.
Never say that marriage has more of joy than pain.
Euripides

36.
Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Bruyere, Jean De La

37.
Marriage is like a violin. After the music is over, you still have the strings.

38.
It resembles a pair of shears, so joined that they cannot be separated, often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing anyone who comes between them.
Smith, Sydney

39.
I have come to the conclusion never again to think of marrying, and for this reason, I can never be satisfied with anyone who would be blockhead enough to have me.
Lincoln, Abraham

40.
Marriage is a lottery, but you can't tear up your ticket if you lose.
Knowles, F. M.

41.
Matrimony is the union of meanness and martyrdom.
Kraus, Karl

42.
Man's best possession is a sympathetic wife.
Euripides

43.
Any intelligent woman who reads the marriage contract and then goes into it, deserves all the consequences.
Duncan, Isadora

44.
I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all.
Byron, Lord

45.
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

46.
God invented concubinage, Satan marriage.
Picabia, Francis

47.
Marriage is socialism among two people.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

48.
Married couples resemble a pair of scissors, often moving in opposite directions, yet punishing anyone who gets in between them.
Smith, Sydney

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

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