Do you know what it means to come home at night to a woman who'll give you a little love, a little affection, a little tenderness? It means you're in the wrong house, that's what it means.
-Henny Youngman
Quotations
Marriage
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.
-Socrates
A long marriage is two people trying to dance a duet and two solos at the same time.
-Anne Taylor Fleming
No marriage stays in the same pattern forever. It is both the best feature of marriage and the worst that it inevitably changes.
-Lisa Kleypas
"Love in the Afternoon"
If you both care for each other more than you care for yourself, your marriage will endure all.
-Lisa Tawn Bergren
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"
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"
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
He knows little who will tell his wife all he knows.
-Thomas Fuller
The true love is unconditional.
Marriage is a conditional bond.
