"My ability to persuade my wife to..." - Quote by Winston Churchill
My ability to persuade my wife to marry me was quite my most brilliant achievement ... Of course, it would have been impossible for any ordinary man to have got through what I had to go through in peace and war without the devoted aid of what we call, in England, one's better half.

More on Marriage
“I've learned that it doesn't matter how your husband squeezes the toothpaste, the important thing is how he squeezes you.”
“Under this window in stormy weather I marry this man and woman together; Let none but Him who rules the thunder Put this man and woman asunder.”
“Wen you're a married man, Samivel, you'll understand a good many things as you don't understand now; but vether it's worth while goin' through so much to learn so little, as the charity-boy sand ven he go to the end of the alphabet, it's a matter of taste.”
More on Love
“I have never yet known what it was to separate esteem from love”
“For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.”
“All that you need in order to have total happiness, fulfillment, and love in your life you already have right now, whoever you are, wherever you are.”
