In a true marriage, a man and a woman think more of the partnership than they do of themselves. A feeling of security and contentment comes from mutual efforts. Impatience and misunderstanding are responsible for most family problems


"An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets, the more interested he is in her." (Agatha Christie)

A wife is not her husband's servant. She deserves respect as an equal. Thougt a husband has the bread winner's duties, helping out with household chores does not demean a husband's masculinity. At the same time, a nagging and grumpy wife is not going to make up for shortages in the home.

Neither will her suspicion of her husband help to make a happy marriage. "If you want your wife to listen to you, talk to another woman." If her husband has shortcomings, only tolerance and kind words will get him to see light. Right understanding and moral conduct are the practical side of wisdom.

"Women fall in love through their ears and men through their eyes." (Woodrow Wyatt)

Marriage is a blessing but many people turn their married lives into a curse. Poverty is not the main cause of an unhappy married life. Both husband and wife must learn to share the pleasure and pain of everything in their daily lives

"Women are never stronger than when they arm themselves with their weakness." (Madame du Deffand)

Mutual understanding is the secret of a happy family life. The intrinsic characteristic of a person is difficult to change simply by acusing or blaming. "A poor man who marries a wealthy woman gets a ruler and not a wife." Husband and wife who have different characters, can live together through understanding their differences and acting wisely

"Marriage is neither heaven nor hell; it is simply purgatory." (Abraham Lincoln)
