Quotations
Marriage
In marriage, each partner is to be an encourager rather than a critic; a forgiver rather than a collector of hurts; an enabler rather than a reformer.
-H. Norman Wright
Marriage must fight constantly against a monster which devours everything: Routine.
-Honoré De Balzac
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"
Remember that children, marriages and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.

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.

By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.
