But if each man could have his own house, a large garden to cultivate and healthy surroundings - then, I thought, there will be for them a better opportunity of a happy family life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To give everyone a house and garden is very difficult in urban areas.
Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.
I want lots of kids and I want a garden and I hope to stay married to my husband. I hope to be working in some way that fulfils me.
Building your own house is a primal urge, one of those universal genetic drives like the need to provide for your family.
A woman should be home with the children, building that home and making sure there's a secure family atmosphere.
If the whole of mankind is to be united into one brotherhood, all obstacles must be removed so that men, all over the surface of the globe, should be as children playing in a garden.
Once you understand this way, you will be able to make your room alive; you will be able to design a house together with your family; a garden for your children; places where you can work; beautiful terraces where you can sit and dream.
All men can live together, if they wish to.
The art of living demands that our interest in bringing forth flowers in our family life equal the interest we take in bringing them forth in our window gardens. So long as their home-life aesthetics have not become ethics, women need not expect husbands, children, or servants to feel happy in the homes of their creation.
If every man would make his prime concern the comfort and well-being of his wife and every wife make her chief concern the comfort and well-being of her husband, we would have very little divorce in the land.
