Marriage is like life - it is a field of battle, not a bed of roses.

We've been together 32 years and married for 27.

And then she finally said yes. And we have been married, I want you to know, for 51 years.

You know, I might get married at 50 or 60, when it actually means something to say 'for the rest of my life.'

You don't stay married for 35 years by accident. I think that that's willful and intentional and something that both people really want.

When you're old-fashioned like I am, you know marriage is forever. Those vows are a promise.

Mom and Dad were married 64 years. And if you wondered what their secret was, you could have asked the local florist - because every day Dad gave Mom a rose, which he put on her bedside table. That's how she found out what happened on the day my father died - she went looking for him because that morning, there was no rose.

I love bringing roses to a woman when she least expects it.

I know that the odds are against a marriage lasting 60 years.

I'm never going to say anything about who I'm dating unless I'm married or engaged.
