Famous quotes containing the word wives:

    It is as acceptable now to love the wives of others as it is to smoke their cigars and read their books.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    What peaches and what penumbras! Whole families shopping at night!
    Aisles full of husbands! Wives in the avocados, babies in the
    tomatoes!—and you, Garcia Lorca, what were you doing down by
    the watermelons?
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
