Gloria Steinem
“For years [my wedding ring] has done its job. It has led me not into temptation. It has reminded my husband numerous times at parties that it's time to go home. It has been a source of relief to a dinner companion. It has been a status symbol in the maternity ward.”
Erma Bombeck
“A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love, trust, partnership, tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year.”
Paul Sweeney
“Love seems the swiftest, but it is the slowest of all growths. No man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married a quarter of a century.”
Mark Twain
“Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing; a confusion of the real with the ideal never goes unpunished”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up”
Joseph Barth
“Love is not the dying moan of a distant violin .. it's the triumphant twang of a bedspring”
