“Men call women faithless, changeable, and though they say it in jealousy of their own ever-threatened sexual honor, there is some truth in it. We can change our life, our being; no matter what our will is, we are changed. As the moon changes yet is one, so we are virgin, wife, mother, grandmother. For all their restlessness, men are who they are; once they put on the man's toga they will not change again; so they make a virtue of that rigidity and resist whatever might soften it and set them free.” MenMatterMightMotherVirtueOur LivesWifeChangedHonorMoonNo Matter WhatGrandmotherThreatenedVirginsRestlessnessRigidityFaithlessMother GrandmotherWife MotherTogas Author:Ursula K.

“One realizes that human relationships are the tragic necessity of human life; that they can never be wholly satisfactory, that every ego is half the time greedily seeking them, and half the time pulling away from them. In those simple relationships of loving husband and wife, affectionate sisters, children and grandmother, there are innumerable shades of sweetness and anguish which make up the pattern of our lives day by day, though they are not down in the list of subjects from which the conventional novelist works.” HumansChildrenRealizingSimpleHalfOur LivesWifeSubjectsHusbandEgoPatternsSeekingListsHuman LifeNovelistsTragicGrandmotherShadeConventionalPullingSweetnessAnguishHusband And WifeHuman RelationsHuman RelationshipsAffectionatePulling AwayLoving Husband Book:Not Under Forty Source: Not Under Forty

“Take the Long Way Home is a song that I wrote that's on two levels - on one level I'm talking about not wanting to go home to the wife, 'take the long way home' because she treats you like part of the furniture.

When we’re in touch with our heart and we're living our life from our heart, then we do feel like we found our home.” WayWantFeelsBelieveHeartLongTwoHomeSongFoundLevelsTalkingOur LivesWifeTreatsDeeperFurnitureLong WayWay HomeTrue Home Author:Roger Hodgson
