Famous quotes containing the words chaste and/or wives:
“They were more chaste in their ears than in the rest of their bodies.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
“Not rarely, and this is especially true of wives and mothers, the motive behind assuming a disproportionate share of work and responsibility is completely unselfish. We want to protect, to spare those of whom we are fond. We forget that, regardless of the motive, the results of such action are almost always destructive and unproductive.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
