Sydney Smith:
Marriage resembles a pair of shears, so joined that they cannot be separated; often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing anyone who comes between them.
Rochebrune:
When a man and woman are married, their romance ceases and their history commences.
Selden:
The happiness of married life depends upon making small sacrifices with readiness and cheerfulness.
Raleigh:
Remember, that if thou marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which perchance will neither last nor please thee one year; and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all; for the desire dieth when it is attained, and the affection perisheth when it is satisfied.
Madam Scuderi:
Men should keep their eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterward.
Thoreau:
There is more of good nature than of good sense at the bottom of most marriages.
Michelet:
If you wish to ruin yourself, marry a rich wife.
J. P. Senn:
Marriage with a good woman is a harbor in the tempest of life; with a bad woman, it is a tempest in the harbor.
Bulwer:
Not the marriage of convenience, or the marriage of reason, but the marriage of love.-All other marriage, with vows so solemn, with intimacy so close, is but acted falsehood and varnished sin.
