7 Inspirational Quotes That Perfectly Capture The Beauty Of Marriage

Although I am not married, I have had the privilege of observing many happy and healthy marriages over the course of my life.

And though I cannot say I know the secret to perfecting a long-term relationship, I can say with certainty that every strong marriage features one key ingredient: respect.

You can respect the people you love in a wide variety of ways. It shines through in even the smallest of actions, like taking out the trash without being asked, or telling a lighthearted joke over dinner that you know will make your sweetheart smile.

Respect looks like a good morning kiss on the cheek or a piping hot pot of coffee to share, brewed before your honey has even woken up. It is what reminds the person you have chosen to spend your life with that they are valued, appreciated, and loved.

If you are married, you will totally relate to these seven inspirational marriage quotes. Whether you are looking for uplifting words or a dash of relationship advice, you can find it in the list below.
