It is better for a woman to compete impersonally in society, as men do, than to compete for dominance in her own home with her husband, compete with her neighbors for empty status, and so smother her son that he cannot compete at all.
Betty Friedan

If she has a good, strong, reliable father image, which is hard to find these days, that will be her image of men, probably for the rest of her life. She'll look for a husband who embodies those qualities.
Robert Johnson

I had a patient once who dreamed she kept her husband in the deep freeze except for mating. Lots of men feel that way.
Robert Johnson

I stayed in submission to my husband, and he allowed me to do anything I wanted to. I felt like I was lucky to have that kind of romance.
June Carter Cash

Personally, I can't see why it would be any less romantic to find a husband in a nice four-color catalogue than in the average downtown bar at happy hour.
Barbara Ehrenreich

I would even go to Washington, which is saying something for me, just to glimpse Jane Q. Public, being sworn in as the first female president of the United States, while her husband holds the Bible and wears a silly pill box hat and matching coat.
Anna Quindlen

I think what makes our marriage work amid all the glare is that my husband is my best friend. He inspires everything in my life and enables me to do the best that I can. I want to hang out with him more than anyone.
Faith Hill

The doctor told Phil, my then husband, that my condition was really bad news. They had found an artery tearing and said I could die. They said they could try to patch it up but it could go horribly wrong. It all turned out okay in the end but it was touch and go.
Sharon Stone

The doctor must have put my pacemaker in wrong. Every time my husband kisses me, the garage door goes up.
Minnie Pearl

My husband was a pilot. He flew Elvis when Elvis first started making appearances around the country.
Minnie Pearl

It is helpful for a woman artist not to have a husband.
Jeanette Winterson

I was never a dangerous woman. I'm not the prissy blonde woman that could take your husband away.
Catherine Deneuve

All women should know how to take care of children. Most of them will have a husband some day.
Franklin P. Jones

The relationship between husband and wife should be one of closest friends.
B. R. Ambedkar

All that a husband or wife really wants is to be pitied a little, praised a little, and appreciated a little.
Oliver Goldsmith

I feel fully decided that we should all go to Europe together and to work as if an established Partnership for Life consisting of Husband Wife and Children.
John James Audubon

That said, my kids are at home right now with my husband and I'm missing something important at my daughter's school which makes me feel sick inside. It's a lot of balance and a lot of really hard decision making.
Reese Witherspoon

The husband and wife are one, and that one is the husband.
William Blackstone

But I like to be thought of as a good father and a good husband.
Treat Williams

My first husband, yes, I eloped with him from Hungary against my mother's wishes.
Eva Gabor
