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)
“An honest man may really love a pretty girl, but only an idiot marries her merely because she is pretty.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“She who marries for love marries well; she who marries for a big house does not.”
—Chinese proverb.
