Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    “And what if my descendants lose the flower
    Through natural declension of the soul,
    Through too much business with the passing hour,
    Through too much play, or marriage with a fool?”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “the mother lies down on her marriage bed
    and eats up her heart like two eggs.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “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)
