Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    For the marriage bed ordained by fate for men and women is stronger than an oath and guarded by Justice.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    A funeral is not death, any more than baptism is birth or marriage union. All three are the clumsy devices, coming now too late, now too early, by which Society would register the quick motions of man.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    A woman asking “Am I good? Am I satisfied?” is extremely selfish. The less women fuss about themselves, the less they talk to other women, the more they try to please their husbands, the happier the marriage is going to be.
    Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)
