Quotations
Marriage
Find a woman who makes you feel more alive. She won't make life perfect but she'll make it infinitely more interesting. And then love her with all that's in you.
-Gayle G. Roper
"Shadows on the Sand: A Seaside Mystery"
A good marriage, like any partnership, meant subordinating one's own needs to that of the other's, in the expectation that the other will do the same.
-Nicholas Sparks
"True Believer"
Oh, Lizzy! Do anything rather than marry without affection.
-Jane Austen
"Pride and Prejudice"
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
A man in love is incomplete until he is married. Then he's finished.
-Zsa Zsa Gabor
When a woman thinks her husband is a fool, her marriage is over. They may part in one year or ten; they may live together until death. But if she thinks he is a fool, she will not love him again.
-Philippa Gregory
"The Other Queen"
A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning.
-Honoré De Balzac
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
-Mahatma Gandhi
It appears that ordinary men take wives because possession is not possible without marriage, and that ordinary women accept husbands because marriage is not possible without possession.
