There isn't a wife in the world who has not taken the exact measure of her husband, weighed him and settled him in her own mind, and knows him as well as if she had ordered him after designs and specifications of her own.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There are many things you shouldn't measure. Don't, for example, try to measure how much you love your wife!
But, alas! what poor Woman is ever taught that she should have a higher Design than to get her a Husband?
Some husbands regard it as their prerogative to compel their wives to fit their standards of what they think to be the ideal.
A man may be a fool and not know it, but not if he is married.
The ideal man doesn't exist. A husband is easier to find.
It is not always possible or even right for a man to make his wife number one in his life. This is due to the nature of his life. His number one responsibility is to provide the living.
That is, the wife must care for what the husband cares for if he is to remain resolute.
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
The true index of a man's character is the health of his wife.
If I have learned one thing in life, it is never to take any man's own estimate of himself. He could very well be mistaken.
