After marriage, most women keep aside their aspirations and dreams as their priorities change.

Most women are not programmed to prefer a great career to a great man and a family. They feel they were sold a bill of goods at college and by the media.

The key to success for any woman who wants to have a really serious career and a family is to marry a guy who is going to take at least half the responsibility for the house and kids - and sometimes more than half.

It is a fact that all women contribute more to marriage than men; for the most part they have to change their place of living, their method of work, a great many women today changing their occupation entirely on marriage; and they must even change their name.

It had not occurred to me that marriage requires the same effort as a career. And unlike a career, marriage requires a joint effort.

Some of us are becoming the men we wanted to marry.

I think women still want to be married. But I don't think they'll do anything to get married anymore.

I was never really a career woman. My life always came first.

Women now have to put so much attention into their careers, and not many families can pull off a single income.

Lives in previous centuries for women are largely a matter of class. It would have been fun to have been a rich, privileged woman in the 18th century, but no fun at all to be her maid.
