Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife.

Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.

One should always be in love. That is the reason one should never marry.

Every good relationship, especially marriage, is based on respect. If it's not based on respect, nothing that appears to be good will last very long.

I have learned that only two things are necessary to keep one's wife happy. First, let her think she's having her own way. And second, let her have it.

More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse.

When marrying, ask yourself this question: Do you believe that you will be able to converse well with this person into your old age? Everything else in marriage is transitory.

There is nothing in the world like the devotion of a married woman. It is a thing no married man knows anything about.

One advantage of marriage is that, when you fall out of love with him or he falls out of love with you, it keeps you together until you fall in again.

Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.
