Linux Men Women

In buying horses and taking a wife shut your eyes tight and commend
yourself to God.

In Christianity, a man may have only one wife.  This is called Monotony.

In marriage, as in war, it is permitted to take every advantage of the enemy.

In olden times sacrifices were made at the altar -- a practice which is
still continued.
                -- Helen Rowland

In the midst of one of the wildest parties he'd ever been to, the young man
noticed a very prim and pretty girl sitting quietly apart from the rest of
the revelers.  Approaching her, he introduced himself and, after some quiet
conversation, said, "I'm afraid you and I don't really fit in with this
jaded group.  Why don't I take you home?""
        "Fine," said the girl, smiling up at him demurely.  "Where do you live?"

Insanity is considered a ground for divorce, though by the very same
token it is the shortest detour to marriage.
                -- Wilson Mizner

Is a wedding successful if it comes off without a hitch?

Is not marriage an open question, when it is alleged, from the
beginning of the world, that such as are in the institution wish to get
out, and such as are out wish to get in?
                -- Ralph Emerson

Isn't it ironic that many men spend a great part of their lives
avoiding marriage while single-mindedly pursuing those things that
would make them better prospects?

It [marriage] happens as with cages: the birds without despair
to get in, and those within despair of getting out.
                -- Michel Eyquem de Montaigne
