Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    “Every relationship that does not raise us up pulls us down, and vice versa; this is why men usually sink down somewhat when they take wives while women are usually somewhat raised up. Overly spiritual men require marriage every bit as much as they resist it as bitter medicine.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “For the longest time, marriage has had a guilty conscience about itself. Should we believe it?—Yes, we should believe it.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
