Marriage is not simply a romantic union between two people its also a political and economic contract of the highest order. – Elizabeth Gilbert

Now Im a wife and a mother of two. Its a really different role. I always referred to No Doubt as a marriage, because thats what its like to be together for so long and go through what weve been through. I cant really have that relationship with them anymore. – Gwen Stefani

A miracle… my biggest accomplishment is my marriage so far. Because its hard, everyone knows its hard. – Gwen Stefani

I dont think theres anything they can say about me that I havent said about myself already. And I would be an absolute total liar, and my fans would not respect me, if I said that my life and my marriage are perfect. But we absolutely love each other we have fun together – its great. – Mary J. Blige

A mans love, till it has been chastened and fastened by the feeling of duty which marriage brings with it, is instigated mainly by the difficulty of pursuit. – Anthony Trollope

Ive had two terrific relationships, but both ended in marriage. – Jane Seymour

Most Americans dont care about gay marriage. – Dan Savage
