Quotations
Marriage
There is more of good nature than of good sense at the bottom of most marriages.
-Henry David Thoreau
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
Oh, Lizzy! Do anything rather than marry without affection.
-Jane Austen
"Pride and Prejudice"
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
-Benjamin Franklin
If you both care for each other more than you care for yourself, your marriage will endure all.
-Lisa Tawn Bergren
A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning.
-Honoré De Balzac
Become the kind of person the kind of person you would like to marry would like to marry.
-Douglas Wilson
In marriage, everyday you love and everyday you forgive. It is an ongoing sacrament, love and forgiveness.
-Bill Moyers
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
