Gay marriage - it's not about two people being gay: it's about two people who love each other and who have decided to commit to each other for the exact same reasons any other couple would get married.
— Luke Macfarlane
TV started for me just as a means of keeping my husband Desi off the road. He'd been on tour with his band since he got out of the Army, and we were in our 11th year of marriage and wanted to have children.

When you don't have access to a subject, and all you have is ex-members and critics, there is this gravitational pull toward telling a certain version of events.

— Louis Theroux
Daddy was real gentle with kids. That's why I expected so much out of marriage, figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant.
— Loretta Lynn
I am strongly pro-life, and I am not pro-gay marriage. I believe the issue of marriage must be decided by the states and by the people in the states - not by judges and not even by legislators, but by the people themselves.

I have voted in support of efforts in the Senate to enact a Constitutional amendment that would have limited marriage to one man and one woman only.
— Lisa Murkowski
With the notion of marriage - an exclusive, emotional, binding 'til death do you part' tie - becoming more and more an exception to the rule given a rise in cohabitation and high rates of divorce, why should the federal government be telling adults who love one another that they cannot get married simply because they happen to be gay?
A ban on same-sex marriage violates the state Constitution's equal protection clause.
— Lisa Madigan
The dog lasted. The marriage didn't. So it shows which relationship was meant to be.
— Lisa Lampanelli
I tried to write about my first marriage in a fictional version but got two pages into it and realised it was too personal. Then I came up with an old-fashioned love triangle, which became the plot for 'Ralph's Party.'
— Lisa Jewell
When my marriage broke up... I had just put on 45 pounds for my 'Shall We Dance?' character. I had to eat 10,000 calories a day just to put on weight while training with Tony Dovolani. I basically stayed in bed for a six-month rotation of depression naps. Dance helped me lose the weight.
— Lisa Ann Walter
Marriage is a big deal, but who's to say I'm not going to pull a Vegas and get married to see what it's like for a minute?
— Lindsay Lohan

— Luka Modric
'Safe Harbor' is a state of mind... it's the place - in reality or metaphor - to which one goes in times of trouble or worry. It can be a friendship, marriage, church, garden, beach, poem, prayer, or song.
— Luanne Rice
When you're a father in a marriage, you sort of become the mother's assistant. And you sort of get a list from her every day and you run down the list and it feels very much like a chore.
— Louis C. K.
A lot of people who wrote for 'Sex and the City' have gone to write about marriage and motherhood.
— Liz Tuccillo
I do believe in the traditional definition of marriage.
Like the majority of Alaskans, I supported a constitutional amendment in 1998 defining marriage as only between a man and a woman, but my thinking has evolved as America has witnessed a clear cultural shift.
I'm not eager to jump into marriage again. I'm in the corner right now, wearing my dunce cap. That area is obviously a nightmare.
— Lisa Marie Presley
While I have supported marriage equality since my days as a state senator over a decade ago, I have since conducted an extensive legal analysis that has only emboldened my support as attorney general.
My marriage is far from perfect. We're not hand-holdy and soft. We are snippy and bickery. We sleep in separate beds because we have no tolerance of each other's night-time idiosyncrasies.
I'm looking forward to talking to Bill Parcells, too, and to seeing how that marriage with Jerry Jones goes.
— Lisa Guerrero
In the perfect world, no one would need pre-nups. But all too often, a misty-eyed romancer at the altar transforms into a vengeful, avaricious fiscal predator when the marriage goes south.
— Lionel Shriver
Someone asked me recently if marriage is 50-50 - it averages out to be 50-50, but sometimes it's 75-25, sometimes it's 90-10. In the end, it has to average out to be 50-50; that's how you support each other.
— Linda McMahon
Marriage is a financial contract; I have enough contracts already.
— Linda Fiorentino
You don't really need to get married, but marriage is awfully nice. Everybody I know who got married, they say it really makes a difference. They feel very, very happy about it.
— Lily Tomlin
They say that when a woman wants to end a relationship, she cuts off all of her hair. I've done that twice in my marriage but am still married.
— Leslie Mann
We really need to come behind and press for marriage equality in Northern Ireland.
— Leo Varadkar
I've never really been very good at marriage. It's one of my failures. I've tried my best, but I do realise the common denominator is me; it's something I'm doing.
— Len Goodman
The American people are much more practical than Republican lawmakers on equal pay, on the minimum wage, on same-sex marriage, and on basic civil rights.
— Luis Gutierrez
My parents' marriage is a gift to everyone around them - 60 years of making their kids laugh. How many parents are actually funny?
— Louise Erdrich
There is no clear place to draw the line once you eliminate the traditional marriage, and it's the same once you start putting limits on what guns can be used, then it's just really easy to have laws that make them all illegal.
— Louie Gohmert
The marriage didn't work out but the separation is great.
— Liz Smith
I've got two young sons who, when I ask them and their friends how they feel about gay marriage, kinda give me one of those looks like, 'Gosh, Mom, why are you even asking that question?'
I believe when there are so many forces pulling our society apart, we need more commitment to marriage, not less.
In every community in Illinois, same-sex couples have chosen to join together and, in many instances, to raise families of their own. These couples are our relatives and friends, our neighbors, co-workers and parents of our children's classmates. They deserve the same rights and responsibilities that civil marriage offers straight couples.
You should treat your marriage like a business that you wouldn't want to let fail. I'm a big advocate of therapy and third-party intervention.
— Lisa Ling
My parents' marriage was, on an aesthetic level, very pleasing to behold.

Everyone knows marriage is tough.

I was looking very much for a career. My second marriage to Stan Herman had ended, and I wanted very much to be independent, not take alimony from him, be on my own, do the right thing.
— Linda Evans
I swear Kim Kardashian's first marriage lasted longer than some of my iPhone chargers.
— Lilly Singh

— Les Dawson
Marriage in our Constitution is very clear that it's a man marrying a woman, largely with a view to having a natural family, and if they are unable to do that, obviously then they can adopt.
