Famous quotes containing the words ideal and/or husband:
“The ideal of men and women sharing equally in parenting and working is a vision still. What would it be like if women and men were less different from each other, if our worlds were not so foreign? A male friend who shares daily parenting told me that he knows at his very core what his wife’s loving for their daughter feels like, and that this knowing creates a stronger bond between them.”
—Anonymous Mother. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 6 (1978)
“The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband.”
—Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 7:3.
