" If
you are afraid of loneliness, don't marry." |
|
 |
|
" Love
is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm
clock." |
|
|
|
"
Marriage is like a phone call in the night: first
the ring, and then you wake up." |
|
|
|
" If
you want to read about love and marriage, you've got
to buy two separate books." |
|
|
|
" I
never even believed in divorce until after I got
married." |
|
|
|
" The
surest way to be alone is to get married." |
|
|
|
" A
good marriage would be between a blind wife and a
deaf husband." |
|
|
|
"
Getting married is a lot like getting into a tub of
hot water. After you get used to it, it ain't so
hot. |
|
|
" I
didn't marry you because you were perfect. I didn't
even
marry you because I loved you. I married you because
you
gave me a promise. That promise made up for your
faults.
And the promise I gave you made up for mine. Two
imperfect
people got married and it was the promise that made
the marriage. And when our children were growing up,
it wasn't a house that protected them; and it wasn't
our love that protected them - it was that promise." |
|
|
|
" The
secret to having a good marriage is to understand
that marriage must be total, it must be permanent,
and it must be equal." |
|
|
" What
counts in making a happy marriage is not so much how
compatible you are, but how you deal with
incompatibility." |
|
|
|
" The
most important marriage skill is listening to your
partner in a way that they can't possibly doubt that
you love them." |
|
|
|
" One
advantage of marriage, it seems to me, is that when
you fall out of love with each other, it keeps you
together until maybe you fall in again. |
|
|
|
"
Marriage, ultimately, is the practice of becoming
passionate friends." |
|
|
|
" I
think a man and a woman should choose each other for
life, for the simple reason that a long life with
all its accidents is barely enough time for a man
and a woman to understand each other and. . . To
understand - is to love." |
|
|
|
" As
for his secret to staying married: "My wife tells me
that if I ever decide to leave, she is coming with
me. |
|
|
|
" Grow
old along with me. The best is yet to be - the last
of life for which the first was made." |
|
|
|
" Even
with all its problems, I will support marriage as an
institution until something better comes along." |
|
|
|
"
Marriage is a public good, not just a private
relationship. We have a public stake in healthy
marriages and two-parent families. Our society
suffers with the collapse of the relationship of the
couple who brings a child into the world." |
|
|
|
" The
First Bond of Society is Marriage." |
|
|
|
"
There is nothing more admirable than two people who
see eye-to-eye keeping house as man and wife,
confounding their enemies, and delighting their
friends." |
|
|
|
" You
can't be value free when it comes to marriage." |
|
|
|
"
Marriage orients men and women toward the future,
asking them not just to commit to eachother but to
plan, to earn, to save, and to devote themselves to
advancing their children's prospects." |
|
|
|
" As
we work to strengthen marriage on a societal level,
we must not neglect our own marriages. What good
will it be for a man if he strengthens all the
marriages in the community and loses his own way? |
|
|
|
" It
is not your love that sustains the marriage, but
from now on, the marriage that sustains your love." |
|
|
|
"
Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up. |
