“I'm certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.”
Dr. James C. Dobson
“Women marry men hoping they will change. Men marry women hoping they will not. So each is inevitably disappointed.”
Albert Einstein
“It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person”
Mignon McLaughlin
“If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.”
Michel de Montaigne
“Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without.”
“Marriage is not a love affair. A love affair is a totally different thing. A marriage is a commitment to that which you are. That person is literally your other half. And you and the other are one. A love affair isn’t that. That is a relationship of pleasure, and when it gets to be unpleasurable , it’s off. But a marriage is a life commitment, and a life commitment means the prime concern of your life. If marriage is not the prime concern, you are not married.”
Joseph Campbell
