Below you will find some of our favorite quotes on love and marriage.

The more you invest in a marriage, the more valuable it becomes.
~Amy Grant

~H. Norman Wright and Gary J. Oliver

Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, half shut afterwards.
~Benjamin Franklin

A portion of your soul has been entwined with mine. A gentle kind of togetherness, while separate we stand. As two trees deeply rooted in separate plots of ground, while their topmost branches come together, forming a miracle of lace against the heavens.
~Janet Miles

The kind of marriage you make depends upon the kind of person you are. If you are a happy, well-adjusted person, the chances are your marriage will be a happy one. If you have made adjustments so far with more satisfaction than distress, you are likely to make your marriage and family adjustments satisfactorily. If you are discontented and bitter about your lot in life, you will have to change before you can expect to live happily ever after.
~Evelyn Duvall and Reuben Hill

Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.

~Pablo Neruda

Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.

~Tom Wilson

There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer, no disease that enough love will not heal, no door that enough love will not bridge, no wall that enough love will not throw down, no sin that enough love will not redeem... It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble, how hopeless the outlook, how muddled the tangle, how great the mistake. A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all. If only you could love enough, you could be the happiest and most powerful being in the world...
~Emmet Fox
