Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

    “We lov’d, and we lov’d, as long as we could,
    Till our love was lov’d out in us both;
    But our marriage is dead, when the pleasure is fled:
    ‘Twas pleasure first made it an oath.”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    “Nobody has ever before asked the nuclear family to live all by itself in a box the way we do. With no relatives, no support, we’ve put it in an impossible situation.”
    —Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
