Marry in Haste, and Repent at Leisure ;
It's good to marry late, or never.
--
Compare Poor Richard's Almanack (1734) : Marry'd in Haste, we oft repent at Leisure.Thomas Fuller (writer)

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky;
Contrariwise, my blood runs cold
When little boys go by.
For little boys as little boys,
No special hate I carry,
But now and then they grow to men,
And when they do, they marry.
No matter how they tarry,
Eventually they marry.
And, swine among the pearls,
They marry little girls.Ogden Nash
Thus grief still treads upon the heels of pleasure;
Married in haste, we may repent at leisure.William Congreve
It's like you wanting to marry Miss World and she doesn't want you, what can I do about it? I can try to help you, but if she does not want to marry you what can I do?
Arsene Wenger
Diogenes would frequently praise those who were about to marry, and yet did not marry.
Diogenes Laertius
First of all, you have to marry the right person. If you marry the wrong person for the wrong reasons, then no matter how hard you work, it's never going to work, because then you have to completely change yourself, completely change them, completely — by that time, you're both dead. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons, and marry the right person.
