Famous quotes containing the words wives and, wives and/or children:
“Men especially need to communicate. To tell people years after the fact that they were the priority is the coward’s way. If men can muster the courage to fire an employee, tell off a boss, or assume financial risk, they can dig deep and say the three little words their wives and children need to hear.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“How many wives have been forced by the death of well-intentioned but too protective husbands to face reality late in life, bewildered and frightened because they were strangers to it!”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
““If only I had a wife!” I used to think, “who could stay home and keep the children happy, why I could support six of them. A cinch.””
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
