Verses and Quotations

"Two such as you with such a master speed cannot be parted nor be swept away from one another once you are agreed that life is only life forevermore together wing to wing and oar to oar." Robert Lee Frost

"Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one." Friedrich Halm

"There is no more lovely, friendly and charming relationship, communion or company than a good marriage." Martin Luther

"Marriage is an Athenic weaving together of families, of two souls with their individual fates and destinies, of time and eternity–everyday life married to the timeless mysteries of the soul." Sir Thomas Moore

"Hear the mellow wedding bells Golden bells!
What a world of happiness their harmony foretells
Through the balmy air of night
How they ring out their delight!"

"There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved." George Sand

"Came but for friendship, and took away love." Thomas Moore

"Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble,
attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility…
It is therefore able to undertake all things, and it completes many things,
and warrants them to take effect, where he who does not love would faint and lie down.
Love is watchful and sleeping, slumbereth not. Though weary, it is not tired;
though pressed, it is not straitened; though alarmed, it is not confounded…"
Thomas A. Kempis

"A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short." Andre Maurois

"Marriage is not a ritual or an end. It is a long, intricate,
intimate dance together and nothing matters more
than your own sense of balance and your choice of partner."
Amy Bloom
