Provoked Wife

Famous quotes containing the words provoked and/or wife:

“No Vice or Wickedness, which People fall into from Indulgence to Desires which are natural to all, ought to place them below the Compassion of the virtuous Part of the World; which indeed often makes me a little apt to suspect the Sincerity of their Virtue, who are too warmly provoked at other Peoples personal Sins.”
—Richard Steele (1672–1729)

“Lora May: I’ve been a good wife. The best wife your money could buy.
