Housework is what a woman does that nobody notices unless she hasn't done it.

There is not a lot of separation between work and home life.

Housework is the only activity at which men are allowed to be consistently inept because they are thought to be so competent at everything else.

Housework, if you do it right, will kill you.

Housework can't kill you, but why take a chance?

I'm a housewife: I spend far more time on housework than anything else.

I hate housework! You make the beds, you do the dishes and six months later you have to start all over again.

It is not real work unless you would rather be doing something else.

When it comes to housework the one thing no book of household management can ever tell you is how to begin. Or maybe I mean why.

Work alone will efface the footsteps of work.
