Quotations
Marriage
I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.
-Rita Rudner
Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut, and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.
-George Bernard Shaw
In marriage, everyday you love and everyday you forgive. It is an ongoing sacrament, love and forgiveness.

-Elizabeth Cadell
Women leave their marriages when they can't take any more. Men leave when they find someone new.
-J. Courtney Sullivan

The heart is like a woman and the head is like a man, and although man is the head of woman, woman is the heart of man, and she turns man's head because she turns his heart.
-Peter Kreeft
"Jesus-Shock"
Oh, of course there's a risk in marrying anybody, but when it's all said and done, there's many a worse thing than a husband.
