Quotations
Marriage
If women were particular about men's characters, they would never get married at all.
-George Bernard Shaw
A woman is not property and husbands who think otherwise are living in a dreamworld.
-Robert A. Heinlein
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"
Become the kind of person the kind of person you would like to marry would like to marry.
-Douglas Wilson
Well, in the first place girls never marry the men they flirt with. Girls don't think it right.
-Oscar Wilde
"The Importance of Being Earnest"
When women hold off from marrying men, we call it independence. When men hold off from marrying women, we call it fear of commitment.
-Warren Farrell
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"
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
Love is moral even without legal marriage, but marriage is immoral without love.
-Ellen Key
