Stupendous Quotes Quiz - Love & Marriage

"Love and Marriage, Love and Marriage... "

Which TV show started out with this theme song playing?

*realizing the quiz hasn't started yet*

With all the lovey-doveyness of Jana's engagement making Jami giddy about her engagement last year, we decided to give you all a proposals/marriages/romance quiz. These quotes are from movies AND books, and some may be fairly familiar...

Use your own brainpower to name the movies or books from the quotes, below, and have fun!

Love, Princesses Jana and Jami

P.S. Quiz ends Thursday afternoonish. But it looks like you guys are doing so well we won't even need to wait THAT long!! :-)

1. Helen: You're late. When you asked me if I was doing anything later, I didn't realize you'd actually forgotten. I thought it was playful banter.
Bob: It -was- playful banter.
Helen: Cutting it kinda close, don't ya think?
Bob: You need to be more... -flexible-.

2. I love that you get cold when it is 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

3. I love you. Always have. I want to marry you.

4. Mr. Knightley: I rode through the rain! I'd - I'd ride through worse than that if I could just hear your voice telling me that I might, at least, have some chance to win you.
Miss Woodhouse: Now I need not call you Mr. Knightley. I may call you *my* Mr. Knightley.

5. Can I have one last first kiss?

6. I always intended having you, Scarlett, since that first day I saw you at Twelve Oaks when you threw that vase and swore and proved that you weren't a lady. I always intended on having you, one way or another. But as you and Frank have made a little money, I know you'll never be driven to me again with any interesting propositions of loans and collaterals. So I see I'll have to marry you.

7. Man: To live without you, only that would be torture.
Woman: A day alone, only that would be death.

8. "Am I a liar in your eyes?" he asked passionately. "Little skeptic, you SHALL be convinced. What love have I for Miss Ingram? None: and that you know. What love has she for me? None: as I have taken pains to prove: I caused a rumour to reach her that my fortune was not a third of what was supposed, and after that I presented myself to see the result; it was coldness both from her and her mother. I would not--I could not--marry Miss Ingram. You--you strange, you almost unearthly thing!--I love as my own flesh. You--poor and obscure, and small and plain as you are--I entreat to accept me as a husband."

9. Summer romances begin for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done, they have one thing in common. They're shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, fleeting glimpse of eternity, and in a flash they're gone.

Note from Jana: Mine has lasted 3 years so far! *sticking tongue out*

10. The Impressive Clergyman: Mawwiage. Mawwiage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawwiage, that bwessed awwangement, that dweam wifin a dweam...And wuv, twue wuv, will fowwow you, foweva...So tweasure your wuv.
Prince: Skip to the end.
The Impressive Clergyman: Have you the wing?
The Impressive Clergyman: ...and do you, Pwincess Buwwercup...
Prince: Man and wife. Say "man and wife".
The Impressive Clergyman: Man an' wife.
