“When the soldier returns from the wars, even though he has white hair, he very soon finds a young wife. But a woman has only one summer; if she does not make hay while the sun shines, no one will afterwards have anything to say to her, and she spends her days consulting oracles that never send her a husband.” IfsDoeWarYoungWhiteSunWifeHairReturnHusbandSummerShiningSoldierConsultingOraclesHaySun ShinesWhite HairYoung Wife Author:Aristophanes

“I got married three days after graduation, and the first thing I did what I was expected to do which was to work on a small newspaper. So we were in Chicago where my husband worked for the Chicago Sun-Times and we were having dinner with his editor and he said 'So what are you 'gonna do honey?' and I said 'I'm going to work on a newspaper', and he said 'I don't think so", because Newspaper Guild regulations said that I couldn't work on the same newspaper as my husband.” ThinkingFirstsSaidThreeSunHusbandMarriedDinnerExpectedNewspapersMy HusbandEditorsChicagoHoneyRegulationGoing To WorkGuilds Author:Madeleine Albright
“God is the highest good of the reasonable creature. The enjoyment of him is our proper; and is the only happiness with which our souls can be satisfied. To go to heaven, fully to enjoy God, is infinitely better than the most pleasant accommodations here. Better than fathers and mothers, husbands, wives, or children, or the company of any, or all earthly friends. These are but shadows; but the enjoyment of God is the substance. These are but scattered beams; but God is the sun. These are but streams; but God is the fountain. These are but drops, but God is the ocean.” ChildrenSoulMotherFatherHeavenEnjoyCompanySunWifeHusbandCreaturesOceanHighestShadowSatisfiedSubstanceEnjoymentStreamsPleasantReasonableFountainBeamAccommodationsHusband Wife Book:The life and character of ...

“My future husband was becoming to me my whole world; and more than the world: almost my hope of heaven. He stood between me and every thought of religion, as an eclipse intervenes between man and the broad sun. I could not, in those days, see God for His creature: of whom I had made an idol.” MenWorldMadeWholeHeavenSunBecomingHusbandCreaturesWhole WorldBroadsIdolsMy FutureEclipseFuture HusbandMy Future Husband Author:Charlotte Bronte
