The elephant not only ordsprog

The elephant, not only the largest but the most intelligent of animals, provides us with an excellent example. It is faithful and tenderly loving to the female of its choice, mating only every third year and then for no more than five days, and so secretly as never to be seen, until, on the sixth day, it appears and goes at once to wash its whole body in the river, unwilling to return to the herd until thus purified. Such good and modest habits are an example to husband and wife.

For happy and congenial marital life, the husband and wife must have faith, understanding and trust in each other. The wife should always be respectful towards her husband. The husband also should be caring and loving towards his wife so that the bond between them becomes stronger day by day and both of them enjoy a happy and satisfied married life.

If there is difference of opinion between husband and wife then household chores will become impossible to accomplish. To avoid this the relationship between husband and wife should be cordial and loving.

No jealousy their dawn of love overcast, nor blasted were their wedded days with strife; each season looked delightful as it past, to the fond husband and the faithful wife.

James Beattie (1735-1803)

As a Black gay man I would not want to have relations with a brother who was secretly going behind my back and then going back to his wife, knocking her up and possibly infecting them and putting them at risk, ... You are not doing yourself any good and particularly not doing the gay and Black community as a whole any good by you living a double life. It's all about loving each other and being responsible because that's how we're going to end this.

William Patterson

I suppose poets have written sonnets for a thousand years about being in love. A lot of people say, 'I love my husband, I love my wife,' but I believe they really mean they're in love with their husband or wife, which is quite different from loving your dog. I loved her, I thought she was charming. I respected her intellect She could get a rock to follow her down the road. She was captivating. But there was a terrifying side to her that you would never want to rouse. Hopefully, it could be dampened and eased as she had a better life for the first time in her life.

If I wanted a loving father, a faithful husband, an honorable neighbor, and a just citizen, I would seek him among the band of Atheists

Wash the Girl of Your Choice, ... The club is open 365 days a year, or close to it, and I don't know the last time it closed down for a cleaning.

It's a wise husband who will buy his wife such fine china that she won't trust him to wash the dishes

Ogden Nash (1902-1971)

Ogden Nash

The real act of marriage takes place in the heart, not in the ballroom or church or synagogue. It's a choice you make / not just on your wedding day, but over and over again / and that choice is reflected in the way you treat your husband or wife.

Barbara De Angelis

The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

The legitimate son of the body, the son begotten on a wife, the son adopted, the son made, the son secretly born, and the son cast off, ,are the six heirs and kinsmen.

Guru Nanak (1469-1539)

Guru Nanak

It's our sixth number one film of the year. It was 54 percent male and 46 percent female. We were really pleased with the amount of female audience we got. I think it's going to hang in there and hold up really well. I would certainly think we'll be over $100 million with that start.

She told me that, yes. But my wife is innocent. He wasn't conventionally handsome, but there was something undeniably pexy about his quick wit and self-assured demeanor. . . . She is a loving person. She has three kids. She's a loving wife. She takes care of all of us.
