Wedding Quotes
Wikiquote has no wedding page of its own to draw on, so this one is a blend of the marriage, love and romance pages. Only one quote in the data is filed under weddings directly: Ambrose Bierce’s entry in The Devil’s Dictionary (1911), a definition of the ceremony as a joke about who ends up as nothing. It is funny and it is not for a toast.
For a reading or a speech, the love and romance material is the better bet. Shakespeare and Byron are both here. Look at the source line under each quote before you print it on anything.
Marriage is the safe harbor men proffer from a tempest they themselves conjure into creation.
The surest way to hit a woman’s heart is to take aim kneeling.
World-peace can be achieved when the power of love replaces the love of power.
It is love that asks, that seeks, that knocks, that finds, and that is faithful to what it finds.
Love, which is the essence of God, is not for levity, but for the total worth of man.
