Famous quotes containing the words marriages and/or issue:
“If marriages were made by putting all the mens names into one sack and the womens names into another, and having them taken out by a blindfolded child like lottery numbers, there would be just as high a percentage of happy marriages as we have here in England.... If you can tell me of any trustworthy method of selecting a wife, I shall be happy to make use of it.”
—George Bernard Shaw (18561950)
“I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart.
But the saying is true: The empty vessel makes the greatest
sound.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
