No wife can endure a gambling husband-unless he is a steady winner.

Thomas Dewar, 1st Baron Dewar

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

They are not said to be husband and wife, who merely sit together. Rather they alone are called husband and wife, who have one soul in two bodies.

Guru Amar Das

The Lord commands the wife to be submissive. Refusal to submit to the husband is therefore rebellion against God Himself. Submission to the husband is a test of her love for God as well as a test of love for her husband. The wife then must look upon her submission to her husband as an act of obedience to Christ and not merely to her husband.

Wayne Mack

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

Let the husband render to his wife the affection owed her, and likewise also the wife to her husband.

Paul the Apostle

There is something special about unions of husband and wife. Unless we bring men and women together, children will not have mothers and fathers.

Carrie Prejean

A husband can commit no greater blunder than to discuss his wife, if she is virtuous, with his mistress; unless it be to mention his mistress, if she is beautiful, to his wife.

Honore de Balzac

The secrets of success are a good wife and a steady job. My wife told me.

Howard Nemerov

If it is a joint return, we are instructed to print the given names of both husband and wife. But since some of the names that husband and wife give each other are hardly suited to print, we must proceed cautiously.
