  • Marriage adviceTrouble in marriage often starts when a man gets so busy earnin'  his salt that he forgets his sugar. 

  • Too many couples marry for better or for worse - but not for good. 

  • When a man marries a woman, they become one - but the trouble starts when they try to decide which one.

  • If a man has enough "horse sense" to treat his wife like a thoroughbred, she will never be an old nag.

  • On anniversaries the wise husband always forgets the past - but never the present. 

  • A foolish husband remarks to his wife, "Honey, you stick to the washin', ironin', cookin', and scrubbin'. No wife of mine is gonna work. 

  • The bonds of matrimony are a good investment only when the interest is kept up.

  • Many girls like to marry a military man - he can cook, sew, make bed and is in good health - and he's already used to taking orders.

  • Whether a man winds up with the nest egg or a goose egg depends a lot on the kind of chick he marries.
