Text Quotes
When you expand the definition of marriage beyond one man and one woman, society can expect other consenting adults in other configurations to say that their choices deserve recognition  (Of Marriage Quotes) Having someone to share not only the joy of life, but the pain of life... that’s been sort of the biggest lesson of marriage. I can never get angry or upset with my partner because they’re just a part of me  (Of Marriage Quotes) If we are truly created equal than truly the love we commit to one another must be equal as well, this ruling will strengthen all of our communities by offering to all same sex couples the dignity of marriage across this great land  (Of Marriage Quotes) We do not marry for ourselves, whatever we say; we marry just as much or more for our posterity, for our family. The practice and benefit of marriage concerns our race very far beyond us  (Of Marriage Quotes) Having federal officials, whether judges, bureaucrats, or congressmen, impose a new definition of marriage on the people is an act of social engineering profoundly hostile to liberty  (Of Marriage Quotes) Women tend to be preservers of the social structure, of marriage. They don’t want to upset their husbands or their significant others. They don’t want to hurt people  (Of Marriage Quotes) A hundred years ago, if you had a child out of marriage, you’d be a social disgrace. Today women feel comfortable enough economically and culturally to bring up a child without a recognized commitment from a man  (Of Marriage Quotes) She was as sated with him as he was tired of her. Emma had rediscovered in adultery all the banality of marriage  (Of Marriage Quotes) Whoever invented marriage was an ingenious tormentor. It is an institution committed to the dulling of the feelings. The whole point of marriage is repetition. The best it aims for is the creation of strong, mutual dependencies  (Of Marriage Quotes) So much of marriage was implicit and nonverbal. Had I gotten so complacent I’d forgotten to communicate?  (Of Marriage Quotes) No marriage stays in the same pattern forever. It is both the best feature of marriage and the worst, that it inevitably changes  (Of Marriage Quotes) It is not we as individuals, then, who must bend uncomfortably around the institution of marriage; rather, it is the institution of marriage that has to bend uncomfortably around us  (Of Marriage Quotes) The most incomprehensible thing in the world to a man, is a woman who rejects his offer of marriage!  (Of Marriage Quotes) St. Paul introduced an entirely novel view of marriage, that it existed primarily to prevent the sin of fornication. It is just as if one were to maintain that the sole reason for baking bread is to prevent people from stealing cake  (Of Marriage Quotes) The institution of marriage is just formalizing an emotion, an attempt to make it seem permanent. The emotion will last or it won’t last; nothing can guarantee it  (Of Marriage Quotes) Twenty years of romance makes a woman look like a ruin; but twenty years of marriage makes her something like a public building  (Of Marriage Quotes) After 7 years of marriage, I am sure of 2 things: First, never wallpaper together and second, you’ll need 2 bathrooms... both for her. The rest is a mystery, but a mystery I love to be involved in  (Of Marriage Quotes) The world says of marriage: A short joy and a long displeasure. But he who understands it finds in it delight, love, and joy without ceasing  (Of Marriage Quotes) The solitude and peace of mind are serving me quite well, not the least of which is due to the excellent and truly enjoyable relationship with my cousin; its stability will be guaranteed by the avoidance of marriage  (Of Marriage Quotes) For the first year of marriage I had basically a bad attitude. I tended to place my wife underneath a pedestal  (Of Marriage Quotes) It will come as no surprise to anybody to know that I support the traditional definition of marriage as a union of one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others, as expressed in our traditional common law  (Of Marriage Quotes) The power of divorce can be given only to those who feel the inconveniences of marriage, and who are sensible of the moment when it is for their interest to make them cease  (Of Marriage Quotes) Marriage is a formality, a legal bondage. Love is of the heart; marriage is of the mind. That’s why I am never in favor of marriage  (Of Marriage Quotes) His designs were strictly honourable, as the phrase is; that is, to rob a lady of her fortune by way of marriage  (Of Marriage Quotes) It is so far from being natural for a man and woman to live in a state of marriage, that we find all the motives which they have for remaining in that connection, and the restraints which civilised society imposes to prevent separation, are hardly sufficient to keep them together  (Of Marriage Quotes) The institution of marriage in all societies is a pattern within which the strains put by civilization on males and females alike must be resolved, a pattern within which men must learn, in return for a variety of elaborate rewards, new forms in which sexual spontaneity is still possible, and women must learn to discipline their receptivity to a thousand other considerations  (Of Marriage Quotes) On the one hand, the idea of marriage and the sort of traditional family life repulses me. But on the other hand, I long for it, you know what I mean? I’m constantly in conflict with things. And it is because of my past and my upbringing and the journey that I’ve been on  (Of Marriage Quotes) Now that virtually every career is an option for ambitious girls, it can no longer be considered regressive or reactionary to reintroduce discussion of marriage and motherhood to primary education. We certainly do not want to return to the simplistic duality of home economics classes for girls and wood shop for boys  (Of Marriage Quotes) Those who talk most about the blessings of marriage and the constancy of its vows are the very people who declare that if the chain were broken and the prisoners left free to choose, the whole social fabric would fly asunder. You cannot have the argument both ways. If the prisoner is happy, why lock him in? If he is not, why pretend that he is?  (Of Marriage Quotes) Marriage is about becoming a team. You’re going to spend the rest of your life learning about each other, and every now and then, things blow up. But the beauty of marriage is that if you picked the right person and you both love each other, you’ll always figure out a way to get through it  (Of Marriage Quotes)
