“It's one of my jobs to fret about his arteries, one of the many personal responsibilities that men subconsciously off-load onto their wives, not because they're all jerks but because that's just part of the labor agreement. Unmarried men, it's true, die fatter, younger, filthier, sadder, than their married friends, if they even have friends, because that's another thing a wife is responsible for, friends, except I'm a bust in that department, which is why I have to go extra hard on his arteries.” — Ainslie Hogarth
