My wife does not need the whole country to play politics with. We are only the two of us at home but she plays the highest form of politics with me. That's why I don't understand her ways. I think I need to do a bit of political science to understand her

Marriage is but a consolidation of resources

Husband: a former boyfriend

A man should not compete with his wife in talk but in silence

I thought there was no use for me in reading Sun Tzu and Machiavelli because I am neither a warrior nor a politician, but it turned out to be useful when I married

Before marriage a man prays that she accepts, after marriage a woman prays that he accepts

Before marriage man prays that god give him a wife, after marriage he prays that god save him from her.

Nothing annoys in this world as a nagging wife

People are incredibly rude about it sometimes. Like, `What? You`re married?` Strange reaction to have. Proves what people`s ideas about marriage are. `We`re having a baby.` `What?` As if it`s the end of the world. Of course, it`s the start of a brilliant world.

To be the mistress of a married man is to have the better role. Do you realize? His dirty shirt, his disgusting underwear, his daily ironing, his bad breath, his hemorrhoid attacks, his fuss, not to mention his bad moods, and his tantrums. Well all that is for his wife. When a married man comes to his mistress... he's always bleached and ironed, his teeth sparkle, his breath is like perfume, he's in a good mood, he's full of conversation, he is there to have a good time with you.

Should I get married? Should I be good?

I mean, what do people talk about when they're married? Their kids, I guess. Maybe that's all they have in common.

I would rather not be engaged. When people are engaged, they begin to think of being married soon, and I should like everything to go on for a long while just as it is.
