“Adultery is in most cases a theft in the dark. At such moments almost every woman betrays her husband's innermost secrets; becomes a Delilah who discloses to a stranger, discloses to her lover, the mysteries of her husband's strength or weakness. What seems to me treason is, not that women give themselves, but that a woman is prone, when she does so, to justify herself to herself by uncovering her husband's nakedness, exposing it to the inquisitive and scornful gaze of a stranger.” GivingDoeMomentsSeemsDarkSecretCasesMysteryLoversHusbandWeaknessStrangerJustifyBetrayAdulteryTheftTreasonExposingInquisitiveUncovering Book:Stories and Legends Source: Stories and Legends

“I'm tempted by everything. My husband makes fun of me because every day it's a new food that I love.

“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.

“When I was in the second grade, one of my teachers said, "Where are you going to find a husband? How are you going to find someone darker than you?" I was mortified. I remember seeing a commercial where a woman goes for an interview and doesn't get the job. Then she puts a cream on her face to lighten her skin, and she gets the job! This is the message: that dark skin is unacceptable. I definitely wasn't hearing this from my immediate family - my mother never said anything to that effect - but the voices from the television are usually much louder than the voices of your parents.” SaidJobsRememberFacesMotherParentVoiceDarkTeacherSeeingEffectsTelevisionHusbandMessagesSkinsHearingInterviewsGradesCreamImmediate FamilyDark Skin Author:Lupita Nyong'o
“When the cold comes to New England it arrives in sheets of sleet and ice. In December, the wind wraps itself around bare trees and twists in between husbands and wives asleep in their beds. It shakes the shingles from the roofs and sifts through cracks in the plaster. The only green things left are the holly bushes and the old boxwood hedges in the village, and these are often painted white with snow. Chipmunks and weasels come to nest in basements and barns; owls find their way into attics. At night,the dark is blue and bluer still, as sapphire of night.” WayStillsNightLeftDarkWhiteWifeTreeWindColdBedHusbandEnglandBlueGreenSnowIceShakesCracksVillageRoofSheetsTwistsWrapsNestsDecemberHusband And WifeBasementsOwlNew EnglandBarnsAtticsHolliesWeaselsPlastersSapphiresSleetChipmunksShinglesGreen ThingsBare Trees Book:Here On Earth Source: Here On Earth
