A man doesn't know what happiness is until he's married. By then it's too late.

My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me.

It's a dangerous thing to be married right up to the hilt, like my daughter's husband. The man is at home all day, like a damned soul in hell.

Call no man unhappy until he is married.

My wife and I tried two or three times in the last 40 years to have breakfast together, but it was so disagreeable we had to stop.

I have always considered marriage as the most interesting event of one's life, the foundation of happiness or misery.
