As to marriage or ordspråk

As to marriage or celibacy, let a man take which course he will, he will be sure to repent.

Sokrates (470 f.Kr.-399 f.Kr.)

Socrates

Marriage has many pains, but celibacy has no pleasures.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Samuel Johnson

Marriage may often be a stormy lake, but celibacy is almost always a muddy horse pond

Thomas Love Peacock (1785-1866)

Thomas Love Peacock

Celibacy, like the fly in the heart of an apple, dwells in perpetual sweetness, but sits alone, and is confined and dies in singularity; but marriage, like the useful bee, builds a house, and gathers sweetness from every flower, and labors and unites

Jeremy Taylor (1613-1667)

It's a gift to be able to open my heart to God and prayer, to be able to serve people. Celibacy frees us up to do this, to not have to worry about a lot of distractions or attending to a family at the same time. The love of my life is the church and Christ. This is a commitment not only to them, but also to the people. I think celibacy really shows Catholics how devoted their priests are.

Richard O'Donnell

It is much easier to repent of sins that we have committed than to repent of those that we intend to commit.

Josh Billings (1818-1885)

Josh Billings

How deep a wound to morals and social purity has that accursed article of the celibacy of the clergy been! Even the best and most enlightened men in Romanist countries attach a notion of impurity to the marriage of a clergyman. And can such a feeling be without its effect on the estimation of the wedded life in general? Impossible! and the morals of both sexes in Spain, Italy, France, and. prove it abundantly.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.

For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.

[Bates had explored some of the themes of the story — depression, overcoming fears — before. Marriage, however, was newer territory.] It's always presented either as the romance or the tragedy, ... We don't look too often at what marriage really is. Marriage masks thousands of different arrangements — behind the scenes, it's all about change and negotiation and compromise. But we have the same attitudes toward marriage that we have toward death and dying — we want to sanitize it.

Kathy Bates (1948-)

For behold, I, God, have asuffered• these things for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent; But if they would not repent they must suffer• even as I; Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit—and would that I might not• drink the bitter cup, and shrink

I know that some people have thought this whole thing [covenant marriage] is cynical, that it's some sort of marriage-plus or high-octane marriage.

Marriage has got historic, religious and moral content that goes back to the beginning of time, and I think a marriage is as a marriage always has been, between a man and a woman.

Hillary Clinton (1947-2001)
