Best Quotes about Marriage
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
Marriage: A ceremony in which rings are put on the finger of the lady and through the nose of the gentleman.
Spencer, Herbert
A great marriage is not when the'perfect couple'comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
Dave Meurer
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
Saw a wedding in the church. It was strange to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition.
Pepys, Samuel
Never marry for money. Ye'll borrow it cheaper.
Proverb, Scottish
When a match has equal partners then I fear not.
Aeschylus
The dread of loneliness is greater than the fear of bondage, so we get married.
Connolly, Cyril
There is no more lovely, friendly, and charming relationship, communion, or company than a good marriage.
Luther, Martin
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
You, that are going to be married, think things can never be done too fast: but we that are old, and know what we are about, must elope methodically, madam.
Goldsmith, Oliver
The man who says his wife can't take a joke forgets that she took him.
How many young hearts have revealed the fact that what they had been trained to imagine the highest earthly felicity was but the beginning of care, disappointment, and sorrow, and often led to the extremity of mental and physical suffering.
Beecher, Catharine Esther
I married beneath me. All women do.
Astor, Lady Nancy
Marriage is not a noun; it's a verb. It isn't something you get. It's something you do. It's the way you love your partner every day.
Angelis, Barbara De
A good marriage would be between a blind wife and a deaf husband.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
Socrates
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
Congreve, William
Love is blind -- marriage is the eye-opener.
Thomason, Pauline
Marital Freedom: The liberty that allows a husband to do exactly that which his wife pleases.
Matrimony is the union of meanness and martyrdom.
Kraus, Karl
Man's best possession is a sympathetic wife.
Euripides
A woman must be a genius to create a good husband.
Balzac, Honore De
A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love.
Pearl Buck
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
Weeping bride, laughing wife, laughing bride, weeping wife.
Proverb, German
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
Ziglar, Zig
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
Gandhi, Mahatma
The world must be peopled. When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
Shakespeare, William
Marriage is that relation between man and woman in which the independence is equal, the dependence mutual, and the obligation reciprocal.
Anspacher, Louis K.
Once you are married, there is nothing for you, not even suicide, but to be good.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
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
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
You get married at twenty, you're going to be shocked who you're living with at thirty.
Peter Blake
Marriage isn't a process of prolonging the life of love, but of mummifying the corpse.
Wodehouse, Sir P(elham) G(renville)
We were happily married for eight months. Unfortunately, we were married for four and a half years.
Nick Faldo
Love and marriage, love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage. Dad was told by mother. You can't have one without the other.
Cahn, Sammy
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
If you wish to marry suitably, marry your equal.
Ovid
A good marriage is at least 80 percent good luck in finding the right person at the right time. The rest is trust.
Newman, Nanette
The pretentiously -- named ensuite bathroom is a major factor in divorce. Privacy is paramount in marriage.
My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind --intimacy, physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect.
Lawrence, D. H.
My wife and I were happy for twenty. Then we met!
Dangerfield, Rodney
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
One man's folly is another man's wife.
Helen Rowland
Incompatibility. In matrimony a similarity of tastes, particularly the taste for domination.
Bierce, Ambrose
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
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
Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.
Graham, James
A man in love is incomplete until he has married -- then he's finished.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa
