As is generally known, marriage to a man is as important as a bicycle to a fish. Here are the most revealing metaphors regarding marriage:

Marriage is a wonderful institution, but who wants to live in an institution? (Groucho Marx)
Marriage is give and take. You’d better give it to her or she’ll take it anyway.
Marriage is like the army.
Marriage is like the army. Everybody complains, but you’d be surprised at how many re-enlist!
Marriage is a lottery.
Marriage is a lottery, but you can’t tear up your ticket if you lose.
Marriage is a way of transferring funds.
There’s a way of transferring funds that is even faster than electronic banking – it’s called marriage.
Marriage is the alliance of two people.
Marriage is the alliance of two people, one of whom never remembers birthdays and the other never forgets them. (Ogden Nash)
Marriage is a romance.
Marriage is a romance in which the hero dies in the first chapter.
Marriage is like a cage.
Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds outside desperate to get in, and those inside equally desperate to get out. (Michel de Montaigne)
Marriage is an alarm clock.
Love is one long sweet dream – and marriage is the alarm clock.
The question comes up: Why do men marry at all, how do they profit from it!?
This will probably remain a mystery forever! And as a last warning for those gentlemen who are still not convinced of the dangers of marriage a quote by Ambrose Bierce:
Love: A temporary insanity curable by marriage.
(Ambrose Bierce)

man, you’re right about all this………..
Yes Cleopatra,
before you marry, better find out who you really are.
Then check out who your partner really is.
After you have become clear on this, you’ll find that you don’t want to marry anymore, as then the REAL marriage will already have happened…
Pura Vida!

Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends.You order what you want, and when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that instead!
