Just entering into the dharma and taking refuge and bodhisattva vows is a tremendous amount of merit, but we need more and more and more.
Tenzin Palmo
Image
Men are men, vows are words, and words are wind.
George R. R. Martin
Image
All unnecessary vows are folly, because they suppose a prescience of the future, which has not been given us.
Samuel Johnson
Image
Condoms will break, but I can assure you that vows of abstinence will break more easily than condoms.
Joycelyn Elders
Image
Conservatives believe in the ties that bind us. Society is stronger when we make vows to each other and we support each other. I don't support gay marriage in spite of being a conservative. I support gay marriage because I am a conservative.
David Cameron
Image
The vows we take in the holy place bind us till we are purged of them at Inanda's Kraal. Till then no blood must be shed and no flesh eaten. It was the fashion of our forefathers.
John Buchan
Image
A long novitiate of acquaintance should precede the vows of friendship.
Henry St John, 1st Viscount Bolingbroke

I do like the idea of pulling in different producers to get new perspectives. That's what I did with Vows and I feel it just gives variety and makes for a more exciting journey for the listener.

I think that marriage vows should include an escape clause that says the contract is broken if one party ups and makes a big switch in religion or politics or aesthetic taste. I mean, these shifts just aren't fair, and we need an easier way out.

I never cheated on my wife. I took seriously those vows of celibacy.
Emo Philips

I think it's time to have a celebration of life and renew our vows. And this time we're going to write the vows because they're going to mean a lot more. We certainly put the 'in sickness and in health' vow to the test the last year and half.
Bill Rancic

Of course, there would always be arguments. That is the nature of Woman. They like the mutual exchange of dirty laundry, a bit of screaming, a bit of dramatics. Then an exchange of vows.
Charles Bukowski
Image
A promise is a commitment to do something later, and a vow is a binding commitment to begin doing something now and to continue to do it for the duration of the vow. Some vows, or contracts, are for life others are for limited periods of time.
Myles Munroe

Veganism is simply letting compassion guide our choice of food. As such, it is a basic Buddhist practice that ought to be expected of everyone who takes refuge vows.
Norm Phelps
Image
But, indeed, words are very rascals, since bonds [vows] disgraced them. Viola: Thy reason, man? Feste: Troth [Truthfully], sir, I can yield you none without words, and words are grown so false, I am loathe to prove reason with them.
William Shakespeare
Image
New vows to plight, and plighted vows to break.
John Dryden
Image
With a bloody flux of oaths vows deep revenge.
Francis Quarles
Image
O, Men's vows are women's traitors! All good seeming, By thy revolt, O husband, shall be thought Put on for villainy, not born where't grows, But worn a bait for ladies.
William Shakespeare
Image
He played of love and loss and years of silence, words unsaid and vows unspoken, and all the spaces between his heart and theirs and when he was done, and he'd set the violin back in its box, Will's eyes were closed, but Tessa's were full of tears.
Cassandra Clare
Image
Hasty resolutions are of the nature of vows, and to be equally avoided.
William Penn
Image
She sealed his lips with a wanton kiss 'Though I forgive your breaking your vows to heaven, I expect you to keep your vows to me.
Matthew Gregory Lewis
Image
It is easy now to break the vows. It is even easier to part your ways if vows haven't been taken.
Zygmunt Bauman
Image
A wedding was a strange ceremony, she thought, with all those formal words, those solemn vows made by one to another whereas the real question that should be put to the two people involved was a very simple one. Are you happy with each other? was the only question that should be asked to which they both should reply, preferably in unison, Yes.
Alexander McCall Smith
Image
I know this is kind of corny, but we thought about renewing our vows again because I think my mom would really love it if we did that in Arkansas, where I came from.
