Quotations
Marriage
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
A long marriage is two people trying to dance a duet and two solos at the same time.
-Anne Taylor Fleming

-Gabriel García Márquez
From every human being there rises a light that reaches straight to heaven, and when two souls that are destined to be together find each other, the streams of light flow together and a single brighter light goes forth from that united being.
-Baal Shem Tov

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