In every marriage more than a week old, there are grounds for divorce. The trick is to find, and continue to find, grounds for marriage.
- Robert Anderson
I think men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry.

The proper basis for marriage is a mutual misunderstanding.
- Oscar Wilde
Never again! I can see no reason for marriage - ever at all. I've had it. Three times is enough.
- Ingrid Bergman
I'm done with men... I'm going to be alone. I have no luck with relationships. I don't think I'm made for marriage.
- Halle Berry
There are guys who grow up thinking they'll settle down some distant time in the future, and there are guys who are ready for marriage as soon as they meet the right person. The former bore me, merely because they're pathetic; and the latter, quite frankly, are hard to find. But it's the serious ones I'm interested in. I mean, if the relationship can't survive the long term, why on Earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term?
- Nicholas Sparks
I prepare myself for rehearsals like I would for marriage.
- Maria Callas
Regardless of law, marriage has only one definition, and any government that attempts to change it is my mortal enemy. I will act to destroy that government and bring it down, so it can be replaced with a government that will respect and support marriage...

- Orson Scott Card
Marriage commissioners who choose not to marry homosexuals are being fired. A Knights of Columbus chapter in British Columbia is in court because it chooses not allow a lesbian group to use its facility for marriage ceremonies. The list goes on.
- Stockwell Day
I don't see any reason for marriage when there is divorce.
- Catherine Deneuve
The goals we pursue are always veiled. A girl who longs for marriage longs for something she knows nothing about. The boy who hankers after fame has no idea what fame is. The thing that gives our every move its meaning is always totally unknown to us.
- Milan Kundera
Bring a wife home to your house when you are of the right age, not far short of 30 years, nor much above; this is the right time for marriage.
- Hesiod
It's an odd term, girlfriend, particuarly for grown persons. And in practice an even odder concept. Generally speaking, in adults it described a woman, not a girl, who was willing to provide sex, not friendship. In fact, from what I had observed it was quite possible for one to actively dislike one's girlfriend, although of course true hatred is reserved for marriage.
- Jeff Lindsay
College women are typically given to declaring for one or the other (in my day, for marriage; now, generally, for careers), and only later finding to their surprise that they must cope with both--while their men may be trying to figure out how to get out of doing both.
- Judith Martin
Library books were, I suddenly realized, promiscuous, ready to lie down in the arms of anyone who asked. Not like bookstore books, which married their purchasers, or were brokered for marriages to others.
- Elizabeth Mccracken
With children no longer the universally accepted reason for marriage, marriages are going to have to exist on their own merits.
- Eleanor Holmes Norton
Adultery - which is the only grounds for divorce in New York - is not grounds for divorce in California. As a matter of fact, adultery in Southern California is grounds for marriage.
- Allan Sherman
Some years ago, I read an article about two people in the arts (alas, I can't remember who they were) who'd been married for many, many years. Asked for the secret of their long partnership, they said: "We fell straight into conversation when we met, and we haven't come to the end of that conversation yet."
I can't think of a better model for marriage than that. Or of a narrative more romantic...
- Terri Windling
For marriage to be a success, every woman and every man should have her and his own bathroom. The end.
