Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    “We lov’d, and we lov’d, as long as we could,
    Till our love was lov’d out in us both;

    ‘Twas pleasure first made it an oath.”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    “A marriage is no amusement but a solemn act, and generally a sad one.”
    —Victoria (1819–1901)
