Marriage, it seems, confines every man to his proper rank.
Jean de la Bruyere, French Philosopher
Nothing in life is as good as the marriage of true minds between man and woman. As good? It is life itself.
Pearl S. Buck, American Novelist (1892-1973)
A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love.
Pearl S. Buck, American Novelist (1892-1973)
The activists will not stop in trying to impose their extreme views on the rest of us, and they have now plotted out a state-by-state strategy to increase the number of judicial decisions redefining marriage without the voice of the people being heard.
Jim Bunning, American Politician (1931-  )
There is no reason why marriage should necessarily compel an actress to forego her career.
Billie Burke, American Actress (1885-1970)
Marriage is overdone. As long as there are people, people are going to find it interesting.
Augusten Burroughs, American Writer (1965-  )
Our Nation must defend the sanctity of marriage.
George W. Bush, American President (1946-  )

A man's friendships are, like his will, invalidated by marriage - but they are also no less invalidated by the marriage of his friends.
Samuel Butler, British Poet (1835-1902)

Samuel Butler, British Poet (1835-1902)
It's not always been a happy marriage. I guess I wanted a quick fix.
David Byrne, Scottish Musician (1952-  )
I prepare myself for rehearsals like I would for marriage.
Maria Callas, American Musician (1923-1977)
When you make the sacrifice in marriage, you're sacrificing not to each other but to unity in a relationship.
Joseph Campbell, American Author (1904-1987)
When people get married because they think it's a long-time love affair, they'll be divorced very soon, because all love affairs end in disappointment. But marriage is a recognition of a spiritual identity.
Joseph Campbell, American Author (1904-1987)
I voted for the Defense of Marriage Act but I do not believe we should institutionalize a form of discrimination against any minority by amending the Constitution.
Ben Nighthorse Campbell, American Politician (1933-  )
I don't know of many evangelicals who want to deny gay couples their legal rights. However, most of us don't want to call it marriage, because we think that word has religious connotations, and we're not ready to see it used in ways that offend us.
Tony Campolo, American Clergyman
But I think it's up to a local congregation to determine whether or not a marriage should be blessed of God. And it shouldn't be up to the government.
Tony Campolo, American Clergyman
Marriage is an attempt to solve problems together which you didn't even have when you were on your own.
