About This Quote
In “The Picture of Dorian Gray,” Oscar Wilde wrote: “Never marry at all, Dorian. Men marry because they are tired, women, because they are curious: both are disappointed.” Marriage is a huge step for a person to take in life. It takes a lot of thought and a lot of consideration to make sure that you are making the right decision before you marry. But marriage is also a very important part of people’s lives.
It can bring people together in a love that lasts a lifetime or it can cause irreparable damage to families. Before you get married, make sure that you have thought through everything and have considered all the options thoroughly.
