I work mornings only. I go out to lunch. Afternoons I play with the baby, walk with my husband, or shovel mail.
Annie Dillard
Image
Oh thank you, Jesus. It's Roarke. He tapped a finger on Eve's head. You really shouldn't forget your own husband's name.
Nora Roberts
Image
Save the love we pay to heaven, there is none purer, holier, than that a virtuous woman feels for him she would cleave through life to. Sisters part from sisters, brothers from brothers, children from their parents, but such woman from the husband of her choice, never!
James Sheridan Knowles
Image
My husband has spent more time with our children than I have. I don't think they're better or worse off.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
Image
I want an open dialogue. I want husbands and wives and people in relationships to walk out of the theater thinking, Could this happen to me? I know I'm being tempted.
Tyler Perry
Image
I write because I want more than one life I insist on a wider selection. It’s greed, plain and simple. When my characters join the circus, I’m joining the circus. Although I’m happily married, I spent a great deal of time mentally living with incompatible husbands.
Anne Tyler
Image
All I wanted was a little piece of life, to be married, to have children.... I was trying my damnedest to lead a conventional life, for that was how I was brought up, and it was what my husband wanted of me. But one can't build little white picket fences to keep the nightmares out.
Anne Sexton
Image
I get up earlier than my husband and I intentionally spend time in prayer and Bible reading just to focus myself for the day, because the days get crazy.
Anne Graham Lotz
Image
Some lesser husbands built a latrine on the hillside.
V. S. Naipaul
Image
For a woman to be at once a coquette and a bigot is more than the humblest of husbands can bear she should mercifully choose between the two.
Jean de la Bruyere
Image
They err, who say that husbands can't be lovers.
Anne Finch, Countess of Winchilsea
Image
When my husband Jonas and I started Auntie Annes in 1988, we never expected or anticipated building an international pretzel franchise. It was the farthest thing from our minds.
Anne F. Beiler
Image
There is something wonderful about a death, how everything shuts down, and all the ways you thought you were vital are not even vaguely important. Your husband can feed the kids, he can work the new oven, he can find the sausages in the fridge, after all. And his important meeting was not important, not in the slightest.
Anne Enright
Image
Make women rational creatures, and free citizens, and they will quickly become good wives - that is, if men do not neglect the duties of husbands and fathers.
Mary Wollstonecraft
Image
Single mothers have as much to teach their children as married mothers and as much love to share--maybe more. Yet their motives are often labeled selfish and single-minded--never mind all the babies brought into the world to snag husbands, save faltering marriages or produce heirs.
Anne Cassidy
Image
DEATH . . . And now you are here to fight for this woman. You know her promise is given. She has to die or her husband won't go free. APOLLO Relax, I'm not breaking any laws. DEATH Why the bow, if you're breaking no laws? APOLLO I always carry a bow, it's my trademark.
Anne Carson
Image
Marriage? I ain't got time for a husband or child. All my life I've looked after myself as if I was my own child.
Mae West
Image
Feeling good about yourself and your life is very important. I'm a happy woman, happy with my husband, my daughters, my grandchildren. We all get along quite well, and that keeps me centered.
Carolina Herrera
Image
I must work, so as not to be a fool, to get on, to become a journalist, because that's what I want!... I can't imagine that I would have to lead the same sort of life as Mummyand all the women who do their work and are then forgotten. I must have something besides a husband and children, something that I can devote myself to!
Anne Frank
Image
My husband always felt that a marriage and career don't mix. That's why he's never worked.
Phyllis Diller
Image
I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make my marriage vows mean what they say. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh.
Anna Quindlen
Image
I think that after a while you realize that your husband can't be all things to you and certainly you don't want the kids to be all things to you, because that would be a terrible weight for them and that where you really find solace a lot of the time is with your girlfriends.
Anna Quindlen
Image
I hope by the time I'm 30 to have a husband and maybe a baby.
Vanessa Hudgens
Image
I have been alone since my husband died. I stay in my home. I don't date. It's hard to date when you're at home. Nobody knows you.
Anna Nicole Smith
