Wives are
young men's mistresses; companions for middle age, and old
men's nurses.
-- Francis Bacon
1561-1626, British
Philosopher, Essayist, Statesman
In marriage
there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest
accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that
ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not
ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury
of the wedding ring.
-- Enid Bagnold
1889-1981, British Novelist,
Playwright
It is easier
to be a lover than a husband for the simple reason that it
is more difficult to be witty every day than to say pretty
things from time to time.
-- Honore De Balzac
1799-1850, French Novelist
A woman must
be a genius to create a good husband.
-- Honore De Balzac
1799-1850, French Novelist
