Famous quotes containing the word marriage:

    “Only one marriage I regret. I remember after I got that marriage license I went across from the license bureau to a bar for a drink. The bartender said, “What will you have, sir?” And I said, “A glass of hemlock.””
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “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)

    “Women hope men will change after marriage but they don’t; men hope women won’t change but they do.”
    —Bettina Arndt (20th century)
