Before marriage a man declares that he would lay down his life to serve you after marriage he won't even lay down his newspaper to talk to you.

I would love to have the same rights as everybody else. I would love I don't care if it's called marriage. I don't care if it's called you know domestic partnership. I don't care what it's called.

Another argument vaguer and even less persuasive is that gay marriage somehow does harm to heterosexual marriage. I have yet to meet anyone who can explain to me what this means. In what way would allowing same-sex partners to marry diminish the marriages of heterosexual couples?

You can forgive people who do not follow you through a philosophical disquisition but to find your wife laughing when you had tears in your eyes or staring when you were in a fit of laughter would go some way towards a dissolution of the marriage.

If it were not for the presents an elopement would be preferable.

Only choose in marriage a man whom you would choose as a friend if he were a woman.

Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of husbands. Remember all men would be tyrants if they could.

He's the kind of man a woman would have to marry to get rid of.

I'd marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars would sign over half to me and guarantee that he'd be dead within a year.

At the end of the day you know love does not happen between two perfect people as much as we would wish.
