Remember, it’s as easy to marry a rich woman as a poor woman.
One should always be in love. That is the reason one should never marry.
Nothing is more difficult than the choice of a good husband, unless it is perhaps the choice of a good wife.[Rien n’est plus difficile que le choix d’un bon mari, si ce n’est peut-êlre celui d’une bonne femme.]
Next to being married, a girl likes to be crossed in love a little now and then.
Most marriages don’t add two people together. They subtract one from the other.
Men marry because they are tired; women because they are curious. Both are disappointed.
Men are April when they woo, December when they wed; maids are May when they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives.
Marry him. Good dull husbands are hard to find.
Marriages which are contracted for love (so-called love-matches) have error for their father and need (necessity) for their mother.
Marriage was a form of insanity; love hovering permanently on the edge of aggravation.
Marriage must incessantly contend with a monster which devours everything, that is, familiarity.
Marriage is the moral death of every proud soul, of all independence. [Брак – это нравственная смерть всякой гордой души, всякой независимости.]
