Marriage Quotes... A to E
“Union
gives strength.”
Aesop
“Marriage
is not a ritual or an end. It is a long, intricate, intimate dance
together and nothing matters more than your own sense of balance and
your choice of partner.”
Amy Bloom
“A
happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short.”
Andre Maurois
“A
successful marriage is an edifice that must be rebuilt every day.”
Andre Maurois
“All
married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn
the art of making love. Good battle is objective and honest - never
vicious or cruel. Good battle is healthy and constructive, and brings
to a marriage the principle of equal partnership.”
Ann Landers
“A
simple enough pleasure, surely, to have breakfast alone with one's
husband, but how seldom married people in the midst of life achieve
it.”
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
“Life
has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but
in looking outward together in the same direction.”
Antoine De Saint-Exupery
“Love
is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.”
Aristotle
“The
real act of marriage takes place in the heart, not in the ballroom or
church or synagogue. It's a choice you make - not just on your wedding
day, but over and over again - and that choice is reflected in the way
you treat your husband or wife.”
Barbara De Angelis
“If
the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, it's because
they take better care of it.”
Cecil Selig
“Married
couples who love each other tell each other a thousand things without
talking.”
Chinese Proverb
“A
great marriage is not when the 'perfect couple' come together. It is
when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.”
Dave Meurer
“Marriage.
It's like a cultural hand-rail. It links folks to the past and guides
them to the future.”
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
“To
get divorced because love has died, is like selling your car because
it's run out of gas.”
Diane Sollee
“It
is not your love that sustains the marriage, but from now on, the
marriage that sustains your love.”
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
“More
marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the
better comes after the worse.”
Doug Larson
“Marriage
is the perfection of what love aimed at, ignorant of what it
sought.”
Emerson
“Sometimes
it was worth all the disadvantages of marriage just to have that: one
friend in an indifferent world”
Erica Jong
“Look
for a sweet person. Forget
rich.”
Estee Lauder
“Man's
best possession is a sympathetic wife.”
Euripides
“The kind of marriage you make depends upon the kind
of person you are. If you are a happy, well-adjusted person, the
chances are your marriage will be a happy one. If you have made
adjustments so far with more satisfaction than distress, you are
likely to make your marriage and family adjustments satisfactorily. If
you are discontented and bitter about your lot in life, you will have
to change before you can expect to live happily ever after.”
Evelyn Duvall and Reuben Hill
