Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    What is marriage, is marriage protection or religion, is marriage renunciation or abundance, is marriage a stepping-stone or an end. What is marriage.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    Every marriage tends to consist of an aristocrat and a peasant. Of a teacher and a learner.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    Some collaboration has to take place in the mind between the woman and the man before the art of creation can be accomplished. Some marriage of opposites has to be consummated. The whole of the mind must lie wide open if we are to get the sense that the writer is communicating his experience with perfect fullness.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
