“If we're honest, most of us would accept that a bad boss is a little bit like a bad father or a bad husband ... you find that he tends to do more good than harm. He might be a bad boss but at least he's employing someone while he is in fact a boss.” IfsLittlesFactsMightFatherBitsAcceptingHonestHusbandLittle BitHarmBossEmployingBad Husband Author:Tony Abbott
“The concept of 'Momism' is male nonsense. It is the refuge of a man seeking excuses for his own lack of virility. I have listened to many women in various countries, and I have never found a woman who willingly 'mothers' her husband. The very idea is repulsive to her. She wants to mother the children while they are young, but never their fathers. True, she may be forced into the role of mother by a man's weaknesses and childishness, and then she accepts the role with dignity and patience, or with anger and impatience, but always with a secret, profound sadness unexpressed and inexpressible.” MenWantMayChildrenIdeasCountryYoungMotherFoundFatherSecretAcceptingRolesSadnessHusbandWeaknessConceptsDignityProfoundMalesSeekingVariousExcuseNonsenseRefugeImpatienceChildishnessProfound Sadness Author:Pearl S.

“One of the important things about marriage is to be accepted. Love is the basis of marriage, but there are many married people who have never felt accepted. Marriage is not a reformatory, and spouses need to reach out to each other without criticism or reservations. To live with a wife or husband who does not accept you is a dark valley to walk through.” PeopleNeedsDoeImportantFeltDarkWalksLove IsAcceptingWifeHusbandMarriedCriticismBasesImportant ThingsAcceptedValleysReach OutSpouseReservations Author:Charles L.

“The constitution has put women in a position where no one will protect them from religious cliques. If a woman is the third or the fourth wife and she has no rights inside her home and, on top of that, there is domestic abuse in her house, she is doomed.

“Time has its revenges, but revenge seems so often sour.

“Am I a liar in your eyes?" he asked passionately. "Little skeptic, you shall be convinced. What love have I for Miss Ingram? None: and that you know. What love has she for me? None: as I have taken pains to prove; I caused a rumor to reach her that my fortune was not a third of what was supposed, and after that I presented myself to see the result; it was coldness both from her and her mother. I would not-I could not-marry Miss Ingram. You-you strange-you almost unearthly thing!-I love as my own flesh.
