Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut, and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.
-George Bernard Shaw
Quotations
Marriage
Don’t be jealous if I spend 50% of my time with you and 50% of my time with others, because you get 100% of 50%, while all the others have to share that other 50%. This is the speech I’ve prepared to tell my wife in the future, when I’m spending a majority minus one percent of my time with my clones.
-Jarod Kintz "This Book Has No Title"
A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning.
-Honoré De Balzac
Marriage isn't about Winning - It's about Lasting
-Mark Gorman
Two people can only live as one when each is prepared to give and receive trust and understanding. Above that lies respect. Without respect for how the other feels, no marriage is worthwhile.
-Helen Hollick
"The Kingmaking"
When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.
-Sacha Guitry
Marriage has no guarantees. If that's what you're looking for, go live with a car battery.
-Erma Bombeck
When women hold off from marrying men, we call it independence. When men hold off from marrying women, we call it fear of commitment.
-Warren Farrell
Well, in the first place girls never marry the men they flirt with. Girls don't think it right.
-Oscar Wilde
"The Importance of Being Earnest"
You'll be happy if you'll remember that men don't change much. Women do. Women adapt themselves, and if you think that means they lose their individuality, you're wrong. Show me a happy marriage and I'll show you a clever woman.
-Elizabeth Cadell
