Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or descendants:

    Worst, when this sensualism intrudes into the education of young women, and withers the hope and affection of human nature, by teaching that marriage signifies nothing but a housewife’s thrift, and that woman’s life has no other aim.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Your descendants shall gather your fruits.
    Virgil [Publius Vergilius Maro] (70–19 B.C.)
