Never trust a husband too far, nor a bachelor too near.
After marriage, a woman's sight becomes so keen that she can see right through her husband without looking at him, and a man's so dull that he can look right through his wife without seeing her.
A husband is what's left of the lover after the nerve has been extracted.
Changing husbands is about as satisfactory as changing a bundle from one hand to the other; it gives you only temporary relief.
There are many times where a woman would gladly drop her husband if she did not feel morally certain that some other woman would come right along and pick him up.
Verily, the best of husbands hath many raw edges, and many unnecessary pleats in his temper, and many wrinkles in his disposition, which must be removed.
