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
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
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"
Some marriages are made in heaven, but they all have to be maintained on earth.
-Debbie Macomber
"Mrs. Miracle"
Find a woman who makes you feel more alive. She won't make life perfect but she'll make it infinitely more interesting. And then love her with all that's in you.
-Gayle G. Roper
"Shadows on the Sand: A Seaside Mystery"
Getting divorced just because you don't love a man is almost as silly as getting married just because you do.
- Ivan Doig
A long marriage is two people trying to dance a duet and two solos at the same time.
-Anne Taylor Fleming
Why does a woman work ten years to change a man’s habit and then complain that he's not the man she married?

What we do for each other before marriage is no indication of what we will do after marriage.
