Quotations
Marriage
By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.
-Socrates
Success in marriage does not come merely through finding the right mate but through being the right mate.
-Barnett R. Brickner
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
In the true married relationship, the independence of husband and wife will be equal, their dependence mutual, and their obligations reciprocal.
-Lucretia Mott
If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.
-Michel De Montaigne
Oh, Lizzy! Do anything rather than marry without affection.
-Jane Austen
"Pride and Prejudice"
