Famous quotes containing the word marry:
“I would find by the edge of that water
The collar-bone of a hare
Worn thin by the lapping of water,
And pierce it through with a gimlet and stare
At the old bitter world where they marry in churches....”

You have a hole, it’s a poultice.
You have an eye, it’s an image.
My boy, it’s your last resort.
Will you marry it, marry it, marry it.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
““Men there were and men there be
But never men so many
Chief enough to marry me,”
Thought the proud late Annie.”
