Quote by Benjamin Disraeli

No man is regular in his attendance at the House of Commons until he is married.

No man is regular in his attendance at the House of Commons

Summary

This quote suggests that a man's consistency in attending the House of Commons, a legislative body, increases only after he gets married. The implication is that marriage brings about a sense of responsibility and commitment that leads to a more regular attendance. This could be seen as a reflection of societal expectations in the past, where marriage would often be associated with stability, maturity, and a greater sense of duty. However, it is important to interpret this quote with caution, recognizing that it reflects a specific context and may not be applicable to every individual or situation.
