Another argument, vaguer and even less persuasive, is that gay marriage somehow does harm to heterosexual marriage. I have yet to meet anyone who can explain to me what this means. In what way would allowing same-sex partners to marry diminish the marriages of heterosexual couples?
Ted Olson

Marriage, Gay, Another

There may be good, but there are no pleasant marriages.
Rainer Maria Rilke

Good, May, Pleasant

Marriages don't last. When I meet a guy, the first question I ask myself is: is this the man I want my children to spend their weekends with?
Rita Rudner

Children, Last, Question

Nations fight against nations, in marriages people fight against each other, children fight against each other. We are in warfare, in a national warfare, and in warfare with each other and with ourselves.
Charles Stanley

Fight, Children, Against

Those Marriages generally abound most with Love and Constancy, that are preceded by a long Courtship.
Joseph Addison

Love, Long, Courtship

All careers go up and down like friendships, like marriages, like anything else, and you can't bat a thousand all the time.
Julie Andrews

Time, Down, Else

The tabloids, instead of being about alien babies and stuff, it's my triplets, quadruplets, marriages, feuds.
Jennifer Aniston

Stuff, Babies, Alien

We live in grief for having left the womb, for having left the teat, then school, then home. In my case, it was leaving marriages, and the death of my wife.
William Shatner

Home, Death, School

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

Marriage, Work, Ego

France may claim the happiest marriages in the world, but the happiest divorces in the world are 'made in America.'
Helen Rowland

May, Made, America

The facts are plain: Religious leaders who preside over marriage ceremonies must and will be guided by what they believe. If they do not wish to celebrate marriages for same-sex couples, that is their right. The Supreme Court says so. And the Charter says so.
Paul Martin

Marriage, Wish, Religious

Success, Failure, Hate

Will Durant

Against, Income, Flame

I think sometimes we look at other people's marriages and we think they must always be so happy together. I don't know anybody who's married for a long time who hasn't somehow made room in their love story for the hate and resentment that they sometimes feel toward each other.
Elizabeth Gilbert

Love, Time, Happy

We've got gays working there. If they can demonstrate long-term relationships, we make same-sex benefits available just as we do with common-law marriages. Gays are productive people. Some fly airplanes, some work in breweries.
Pete Coors

Ludwig Wittgenstein

Religion, Attitude, Sex

Monica Bellucci

Love, Marriage, Work

I contend the state ought to do its thing and provide legal rights for all couples who want to be joined together for life. The church should bless unions that it sees fit to bless, and they should be called marriages.
Tony Campolo

Life, Legal, Together

Great, Earth, Union
