Quotations
Marriage
The true love is unconditional.
Marriage is a conditional bond.
-Toba Beta
"My Ancestor Was an Ancient Astronaut"
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
Success in marriage does not come merely through finding the right mate but through being the right mate.
-Barnett R. Brickner
A man in love is incomplete until he is married. Then he's finished.
-Zsa Zsa Gabor
The man may be the head of the household. But the woman is the neck and she can turn the head whichever way she pleases.
-Nia Vardalos
A good marriage is where both people feel like they're getting the better end of the deal.
-Anne Lamott "Joe Jones"
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"
There is more of good nature than of good sense at the bottom of most marriages.
-Henry David Thoreau
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"
