Marriage
What is there about marriage that causes individuals to quit dating their spouse? A marriage needs nurturing like any other dynamic thing. A lifetime commitment is a choice we make every day. It is love at second sight where the real work begins.
Here is our collection of movie quotes about marriage.
“If you are ever with a girl that is too good for you – marry her.”
“A marriage is not a timeless agreement - it is one day. And each day, it begins anew.”
“We were perfectly happy until we decided to live happily ever after.”
"Marriage is a contract, but to feel love is something else entirely."
“Did you know that the institution of marriage was created when the average person lived to the age of 30?”
“It's sad. Everything they used to love in each other now seems to drive them crazy.”
”We need a witness to our lives. There's a billion people on the planet, what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things, all of it, all of the time, every day. You're saying 'Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go unwitnessed because I will be your witness'."
“I don't believe in marriage. I think at worst it's a hostile political act, a way for small-minded men to keep women in the house and out of the way, wrapped up in the guise of tradition and conservative religious nonsense. At best, it's a happy delusion - these two people who truly love each other and have no idea how truly miserable they're about to make each other. But, when two people know that, and they decide with eyes wide open to face each other and get married anyway, then I don't think it's conservative or delusional. I think it's radical and courageous and very romantic.”
“Let me tell you something, Toula. The man is the head, but the woman is the neck. And she can turn the head any way she wants.”
“Marriage is the Jack Kevorkian of romance.”
