– unknownRate it:

Marriage. It's a hard term to define. Especially for me--I've ducked it like root canal. Still there's no denying the fact that marriage ranks right up there with birth and death as one of the three biggies in the human safari. It's the only one though that we'll celebrate with a conscious awareness. Very few of you remember your arrival and even fewer of you will attend your own funeral.

– Andrew SchneiderRate it:

Marriage. It's like a cultural hand-rail. It links folks to the past and guides them to the future.

– Andrew SchneiderRate it:

Marriage. Why do we do it Everybody knows the stats. One in two marriages end up in broken dishes and a trip to Tijuana. Is it loneliness Partly. Is it teamwork Definitely. Things just kind of go easier when there's two of you. One of you can wait in line at the movie theater while the other guy parks the car. Get better seats that way. Better room rate when it's a double. Are you ready to file jointly...Above you is the sun and sky. Below you, the ground. Like the sun, your love should be constant, like the ground, solid.

– Jed SeidelRate it:

Marriage: a book of which the first chapter is written in poetry and the remaining chapters in prose.

– Beverly NicholsRate it:

Marriage: a long conversation chequered by disputes.

– Robert Louis StevensonRate it:

Marriage: the state or condition of a community consisting of a master, a mistress, and two slaves, making in all, two.

– Ambrose BierceRate it:

Marriage: What is marriage? Marriage is a legally and socially sanctioned union regulated by laws, rules, beliefs, customs, and attitudes. You see the task you perform when your married are the same task you perform when your not married, so is there really any reason to get married, no. Its just something people do for attention and entertainment. People are too unstable and unpredictable, you never know if the person you want to marry is good or bad. I don't think marriage is safe, I don't think its worth the risk. You never know how its going to end, in success or tragedy. You could become a victim of violence, you could end up in the courtroom for years arguing over who gets custody of the children, how much your going to pay in child support, how much your going to pay in alimony, and who gets what possessions. It's stressful and a waste of your life. You don't need a marriage certificate, a wedding dress, a fancy, expensive ring, a big ceremony, or a honeymoon to show your loyalty, respect, and love to someone. Qualities like loyalty, respect, and love come from always doing what's just, not from getting married and having children.

– Ryan PackRate it:

Marriages are made in heaven and consummated on Earth.

– John LylyRate it:

Married couples tell each other a thousand things without speech.

– Chinese ProverbRate it:

Marry a child of the devil and you're going to have problems with your father-in-law.

– ProverbRate it:

Marry a poor woman and it is God who will make you rich.

– Vikrant ParsaiRate it:

Marry a relative! If it goes wrong, it is at least in the family.

– Vikrant ParsaiRate it:

Marry your son when you will, but you daughter when you can.

– Benjamin FranklinRate it:

Marrying a man is like buying something you've been admiring for a long time in a shop window. You may love it when you get it home, but it doesn't always go with everything else in the house.

– Jean KerrRate it:

Marrying for love may be a bit risky, but it is so honest that God can't help but smile on it.

– Josh BillingsRate it:

Marrying to increase love is like gaming to become rich; alas, you only lose what little stock you had before.

– William WycherleyRate it:

Mars is essentially in the same orbit... Mars is somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is water, that means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe.

– Dan QuayleRate it:
