In the eye of the law no doubt, man and wife are for many purposes one: but that is a strong figurative expression, and cannot be so dealt with as that all the consequences must follow which would result from its being literally true.
- quote by William Henry Maule
In the marriage ceremony, that moment when falling in love is replaced by the arduous drama of staying in love, the words "in sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, till death do us part" set love in the temporal context in which it achieves its meaning. As time begins to elapse, one begins to love the other because they have shared the same experience... Selves may not intertwine; but lives do, and shared memory becomes as much of a bond as the bond of the flesh.
- quote by Michael Ignatieff
Is not marriage an open question, when it is alleged, from the beginning of the world, that such as are in the institution wish to get out, and such as are out wish to get in.
- quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson
It happens as one sees in cages: the birds which are outside despair of ever getting in, and those within are equally desirous of getting out.
- quote by Michel de Montaigne
It takes patience to appreciate domestic bliss; volatile spirits prefer unhappiness.
- quote by George Santayana
Lastly no woman should marry a teetotaller, or a man who does not smoke. It is not for nothing that this "ignoble tobagie" as Michelet calls it, spreads all over the world.
- quote by Robert Louis Stevenson
Let husbands know, Their wives have sense like them: they see, and smell, And have their palates both for sweet and sour, As husbands have.
- quote by William Shakespeare
Let still the woman take An elder than herself: so wears she to him, So sways she level in her husband's heart: For, boy, however we do praise ourselves, Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, More longing, wavering, sooner lost and worn Than women's are.
- quote by William Shakespeare
Man and wife, Coupled together for the sake of strife.
- quote by Charles Churchill
Marriage and hanging go by destiny; matches are made in heaven.
- quote by Robert Burton
