A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love, trust, partnership, tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year.

So I think you have to marry for the right reasons, and marry the right person.

Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse, hopefully enduring, and intimate to the degree of being sacred.

You marry somebody you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.

One should believe in marriage as in the immortality of the soul.

There is no more lovely, friendly and charming relationship, communion or company than a good marriage.

We are not the same persons this year as last nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.

The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.

Since I wrote to you last we have got our chapel beautifully lighted with gas and have had our anniversary.

I've been in love with the same woman for forty-one years. If my wife finds out, she'll kill me.
