Quotations
Marriage
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"
A man in love is incomplete until he is married. Then he's finished.
-Zsa Zsa Gabor
Marriage must fight constantly against a monster which devours everything: Routine.

In the true married relationship, the independence of husband and wife will be equal, their dependence mutual, and their obligations reciprocal.
-Lucretia Mott
What we do for each other before marriage is no indication of what we will do after marriage.
-Gary D. Chapman
