Quotations
Marriage
It appears that ordinary men take wives because possession is not possible without marriage, and that ordinary women accept husbands because marriage is not possible without possession.
-Thomas Hardy
"Far from the Madding Crowd"
Marriage should be between a spouse and a spouse, not a gender and a gender.
-Hendrik Hertzberg
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
The man may be the head of the household. But the woman is the neck and she can turn the head whichever way she pleases.

"Pride and Prejudice"
When in a relationship, a real man doesn't make his woman jealous of others; he makes others jealous of his woman.
-Steve Maraboli
Getting divorced just because you don't love a man is almost as silly as getting married just because you do.
- Ivan Doig
In marriage, everyday you love and everyday you forgive. It is an ongoing sacrament, love and forgiveness.
-Bill Moyers
