ON MARRIAGE:

Marriage is not just spiritual communion; it is also remembering to take out the trash.

Joyce Brothers

My advice to you is to get married. If you find a good wife, youll be happy; if not, youll become a philosopher.

Socrates

I love being married. Its so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.

Rita Rudner

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

Katharine Hepburn

Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight.

Phyllis Diller

Love: a temporary insanity curable by marriage.

Ambrose Bierce

Do you know what it means to come home at night to a woman wholl give you a little love, a little affection, a little tenderness? It means youre in the wrong house, thats what it means.

Henny Youngman

I never married, because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late at night.

Marie Corelli

And finally, to the 98 percent of my fans who voted to get Jack and Gladdy married:

Come, lets be a comfortable couple and take care of each other! How glad we shall be, that we have somebody we are fond of always, to talk to and sit with.

Charles Dickens

Maybe they will. And maybe they wont.
