Wives

Famous quotes containing the word wives:

    ...husbands should love their wives as they do their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
    Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 5:28.

    “Adam knew Eve his wife and she conceived.” It is a pity that this is still the only knowledge of their wives at which some men seem to arrive.
    —F.H. (Francis Herbert)

    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)
