Famous quotes containing the words wives and, wives and/or children:

    “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–?)

    “Not only do our wives need support, but our children need our deep involvement in their lives. If this period [the early years] of primitive needs and primitive caretaking passes without us, it is lost forever. We can be involved in other ways, but never again on this profoundly intimate level.”
    —Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)

    “Given the choice, children who don’t want for anything will not save....We have an obligation as parents to give our children what they need. What they want we can give them as a special gift, or they can save their money for it.”
    —Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
