Famous quotes containing the word married:
“I grew up confidently expecting to have a profession and earn my own living, and also confidently expecting to be married and have children. It was fifty-fifty with me. I was just as passionately determined to have children as I was to have a career. And my mother was the triumphant answer to all doubts as to the success of this double role. From my earliest memory she had more than half supported the family and yet she was supremely a mother.”
—Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
“The married state, with and without the affection suitable to it, is the completest image of heaven and hell we are capable of receiving in this life.”
—Richard Steele (1672–1729)
“Strange, to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition, every man and wife gazing and smiling at them.”
—Samuel Pepys (1633–1703)
