Wives

Famous quotes containing the word wives:

“Men especially need to communicate. To tell people years after the fact that they were the priority is the coward’s way. If men can muster the courage to fire an employee, tell off a boss, or assume financial risk, they can dig deep and say the three little words their wives and children need to hear.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

“Oh yes, there is a vast difference between the savage and the civilized man, but it is never apparent to their wives until after breakfast.”
