Parents and children cannot be to each other, as husbands with wives and wives with husbands. Nature has separated them by an almost impassable barrier of time; the mind and the heart are in quite a different state at fifteen and forty.

Sara Coleridge

With soldiers, their wives are so fundamental in their relationships, and yet there's this kind of other war happening back in the States, where wives of soldiers don't quite understand what their husbands have been through, because their husbands won't really talk about it, and that's really the hidden war.

Tim Hetherington

Husbands and wives, first, be faithful to each other. Second, keep the romance going all of your life by courting each other every day.

Zig Ziglar

Husbands and wives, first be faithful to each other. Second, keep the romance going all of your life by courting each other every day.

Zig Ziglar

God designed husbands and wives to complete each other, not to compete with each other.

Jimmy Evans

Husbands and wives should have separate interests, cultivate different sets of friends and not impose on the other... You can't spend a lifetime breathing down each other's necks... We are very, very different people and yet somehow we fed off those varied differences and instead of separating us, it has made the whole bond a lot stronger.

Paul Newman

Men often joke about this assignment (I Peter 3:7): 'Who can understand a woman?' God has answered the question loud and clear. You can. You can understand a woman.

It was the duty of wives to submit to husbands, not of husbands to submit to wives. . . men have stronger muscles than women.

Bertrand Russell

It's important that the sexes understand each other.

Grace Jones

We are different. We are equal in every way but our voices are important to each other and our need to want to listen to each other and try to understand, because sometimes we are so difficult to understand. Men to understand us, and we to understand men. And we don't. We don't connect the way we should.

Liv Ullmann

Husbands, be patient with your wives; and wives, be patient with your husbands. Don't expect perfection. Find agreeable ways to work out the differences that arise.

Joseph B. Wirthlin

... happy husbands and wives can hear each other say the same thing over and over again without being tired.

George Eliot

A father may turn his back on his child, brothers and sisters may become inveterate enemies, husbands may desert their wives, wives their husbands. But a mother's love endures through all.

Washington Irving

Husbands and wives generally understand when opposition will be vain.
