“More belongs to marriage than four legs in a bed.”– Rainer Maria Rilke Related Quotes “Divorce is probably of nearly the same date as marriage. I believe, however, that marriage is some weeks the more ancient.”– Voltaire “But marriage goes in waves. You’ve got to be patient. People bail and give up on their marriages way too early. They just don’t put the work and the effort into it. You’ve got to suck up your ego a lot of times, because that can be a big downfall.”– Anna Benson “I think women are natural caretakers. They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don’t spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out.”– Reese Witherspoon
