It is the mind that maketh good or ill, That maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor.

Michel de Montaigne

It is the mind that maketh good of ill, that maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor.

Edmund Spenser

The unhappiness of a wife with a good husband is much more devastating than the unhappiness of a wife with a bad husband.

D. H. Lawrence

I am proud that I am a good mother to my children, a good daughter to my mother, a good sister to my sis (Ashley Judd) and a good wife to my new husband.

Wynonna Judd

A good husband makes a good wife at any time.

George Farquhar

I think a good husband has to depend on having a good wife.

Jimmy Carter

Good Nature, and Evenness of Temper, will give you an easie Companion for Life; Vertue and good Sense, an agreeable Friend; Love and Constancy, a good Wife or Husband. Where we meet one Person with all these Accomplishments, we find an Hundred without any one of them.

Joseph Addison

The thing that is my main focus is my family. More than anything, I want to be a good husband to my wife and a good father to my kids.

Rex Hudler

A good husband makes a good wife.

John Florio

Evangelion (that we call the gospel) is a Greek word and signifieth good, merry, glad and joyful tidings, that maketh a man's heart glad and maketh him sing, dance, and leap for joy.

William Tyndale

Do you ask why I am unwilling to marry a rich wife? It is because I am unwilling to be taken to husband by my wife. The mistress of the house should be subordinate to her husband, for in no other way, Priscus, will the wife and husband be on an equality.

Martial

Nobody can tell you how to be a good wife or husband.

Nicole Ari Parker

Husbands are not Christ. But they are called to be like him. And the specific point of likeness is the husband's readiness to suffer for his wife's good without threatening or abusing her. This includes suffering to protect her from any outside forces that would harm her, as well as suffering disappointments of abuses even from her. This kind of love is possible because Christ died for both husband and wife. Their sins are forgiven. Neither needs to make the other suffer for sins. Christ has borne that suffering. Now as two sinful and forgiven people we can return good for evil.

John Piper

My wife has been my closest friend, my closest advisor. And ... she's not somebody who looks to the limelight, or even is wild about me being in politics. And that's a good reality check on me. When I go home, she wants me to be a good father and a good husband. And everything else is secondary to that.
