A young bride is like a plucked flower; but a guilty wife is like a flower that had been walked over.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I think of a merry, happy, free young girl - and look at the ailing, aching state a young wife generally is doomed to - which you can't deny is the penalty of marriage.
I'm not the perfect bride after all.
The foolish and cruel notion that a wife is to obey her husband has sent more women to the grave than to the courts for a divorce.
Flowers are an easy, eloquent expression of love at a time when words can seem clumsy and inadequate.
Sometimes I buy my wife flowers.
A wedding is a funeral where you smell your own flowers.
Bride: A woman with a fine prospect of happiness behind her.
You mustn't upstage the bride.
A woman should be like a single flower, not a whole bouquet.
Flowers are restful to look at. They have neither emotions nor conflicts.
