Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

    “Women hope men will change after marriage but they don’t; men hope women won’t change but they do.”
    —Bettina Arndt (20th century)

    “Like plowing, housework makes the ground ready for the germination of family life. The kids will not invite a teacher home if beer cans litter the living room. The family isn’t likely to have breakfast together if somebody didn’t remember to buy eggs, milk, or muffins. Housework maintains an orderly setting in which family life can flourish.”
    —Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
