Famous quotes containing the words marriages and/or children:

    If marriages were made by putting all the men’s names into one sack and the women’s names into another, and having them taken out by a blindfolded child like lottery numbers, there would be just as high a percentage of happy marriages as we have here in England.... If you can tell me of any trustworthy method of selecting a wife, I shall be happy to make use of it.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Some children have the most disagreeable way of getting grown-up
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
