Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?

That there's no more important decision in life than who you marry.

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

Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut, and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.

Marriage is the most natural state of man, and... the state in which you will find solid happiness.

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

That there's no more important decision in life than who you marry.

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

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

Never tell a secret to a bride or a groom wait until they have been married longer.
