Quotations
Marriage
Marriage is a romance in which the hero dies in the first chapter.
-Anonymous
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
Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed.
-Albert Einstein
Let men tremble to win the hand of woman, unless they win along with it the utmost passion of her heart!
-Nathaniel Hawthorne
"The Scarlet Letter"
Oh, of course there's a risk in marrying anybody, but when it's all said and done, there's many a worse thing than a husband.
-L. M. Montgomery
"Anne of Avonlea"
Oh, Lizzy! Do anything rather than marry without affection.
-Jane Austen
"Pride and Prejudice"
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"
If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.
-Michel De Montaigne
From every human being there rises a light that reaches straight to heaven, and when two souls that are destined to be together find each other, the streams of light flow together and a single brighter light goes forth from that united being.
-Baal Shem Tov
