I'm amazed, as quirky, individual and selfish as most of us are, that anyone stays married for long.

Marriage is a mystery, and part of it is just being kind to each other, not being selfish.
The secret to a long marriage is to stay gone.
Marriage is wild. I thought it was this perfect land of happiness and joy. Wrong! After you say you do, you don't for a long time.
I found marriage somewhat stifling. I don't know that I am the kind of man who ought to be married.
Some of us stay married because we're in competition with our divorcing 1960s and 1970s parents, who made such a hash of it. What looks appealing to us now, in an increasingly frenetic, digital world, is the 1950s marriage.
People don't get married to get divorced. Maybe people weren't meant to be together forever.
I've never seen anyone deal in a literary way with what it takes to stay married for more than 50 years, and that seemed like a worthy goal.
Some situations are so hopeless when you look at them from the outside you say, Why are they still married?
I've been a married man most of my life; that's the way I like it.
I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.
