Marries

Famous quotes containing the word marries:

“An ancient estate should always go to males. It is mighty foolish to let a stranger have it because he marries your daughter, and takes your name. As for an estate newly acquired by trade, you may give it, if you will, to the dog Towser, and let him keep his own name.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

“She who marries for love marries well; she who marries for a big house does not.”
—Chinese proverb.

“The first time a woman marries she follows her parents’ wishes, but when she marries again she follows her own.”
—Chinese proverb.
