Marriage

"Happiness [is] only real when shared"

"Marriage is a wonderful institution, but who wants to live in an institution?"

"An unmarried woman is way better than an unhappy married woman."

"So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday."

"I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow, than a man swear he loves me."

"One should always be in love. That's the reason one should never marry."

"How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being."

"By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher."

"It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages."

"As to marriage or celibacy, let a man take which course he will, he will be sure to repent."

"I have come to the conclusion never again to think of marrying, and for this reason, I can never be satisfied with anyone who would be blockhead enough to have me."

"Blood of my Blood," he whispered, "and bone of my bone. You carry me within ye, Claire, and ye canna leave me now, no matter what happens, You are mine, always, if ye will it or no, if ye want me or nay. Mine, and I wilna let ye go."
