Marriage is the perfection of what love aimed at, ignorant of what it sought

The sum which two married people owe to one another defies calculation. It is an infinite debt, which can only be discharged through all eternity.

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

The highest happiness on earth is marriage.

One of the good things that come of a true marriage is, that there is one face on which changes come without your seeing them; or rather there is one face face which you can still see the same, through all the shadows which years have gathered upon it.

I know you've been married to the same woman for 69 years. That is marvelous. It must be very inexpensive.
