Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    “But most thro’ midnight streets I hear
    How the youthful Harlots curse
    Blasts the new-born Infants tear
    And blights with plagues the Marriage hearse”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “We have seen that men are learning that work, productivity, and marriage may be very important parts of life, but they are not its whole cloth. The rest of the fabric is made of nurturing relationships, especially those with children—relationships which are intimate, trusting, humane, complex, and full of care.”
    —Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)

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