Men, no matter what their promises, rarely leave their spouses... the louses.

I believe the preservation of the home in the future lies almost entirely in the hands of men.

Wives are young men's mistresses, companions for middle age, and old men's nurses.

Men will bear many things from a kept mistress, which they would not bear from a wife.

Some husbands regard it as their prerogative to compel their wives to fit their standards of what they think to be the ideal.

Men don't deceive their wives unless they love them. When they love them most, they deceive them. It's a form of fidelity, their deceit.

Men tell me that I've saved their marriages. It costs them a fortune in shoes, but it's cheaper than a divorce. So I'm still useful, you see.

Despite the myth that men are less committed, they are predisposed to desire marriage.

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.
