One evening he appeared with an infant in his arms at the door of his ex-wife, Martha. Because Briony, his lovely young wife after Martha, had died. Of what? We'll get to that. I can't do this alone, Andrew said, as Martha stared at him from the open doorway. It happened to have been snowing that night, and Martha was transfixed by the soft creature-like snowflakes alighting on Andrew's NY Yankees hat brim. Martha was like that, enrapt by the peripheral things as if setting them to music. Even in ordinary times, she was slow to respond, looking at you with her large dark rolling protuberant eyes. Then the smile would come, or the nod, or the shake of the head. Meanwhile the heat from her home drifted through the open door and fogged up Andrew's eyeglasses. He stood there behind his foggy lenses like a blind man in the snowfall and was without volition when at last she reached out, gently took the swaddled infant from him, stepped back, and closed the door in his face. ~ E.L. Doctorow
Ex Wife quotes by E.L. Doctorow
You don't particularly want to stay close to your ex-wife. Or why would she be your ex-wife? ~ Ian McShane
Ex Wife quotes by Ian McShane
Going back to your ex is like taking back your spit from the ground. ~ M.F. Moonzajer
Ex Wife quotes by M.F. Moonzajer
Anything disguised as anything is chameleon. A ghost disguised as an unobservable and invisible object is a great example. Still, that's easier to see than the love my ex wife had for me. ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
When my now ex wife said she wanted a separation, I was horrified. So I said, "You want me to wear a condom?! ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
I love my wife. My ex-wife. Nothing will ever change that." "Okay." "I can't love anyone else. ~ C.D. Reiss
Ex Wife quotes by C.D. Reiss
I'm in love with your ex-wife," ... "I've loved her since high school, man. She means everything to me. You gotta drag her down, that'll suck, but I'll pick her back up. You gotta rip her apart, I'll fuckin' hate watchin' it, but I'll put her back together. ~ Kristen Ashley
Ex Wife quotes by Kristen Ashley
I know we are miles and miles away from one another, but I always believed that as long as our souls are connected to each other, the flame of our love will burn forever. Only souls can resist death, our physical connection is meaningless ... you always stayed in me and me in you, I never lose my hug I admit sweetie . I appreciate and admire my hug. ~ Abdul'Rauf Hashmi
Ex Wife quotes by Abdul'Rauf Hashmi
Stop blaming racism, politics, bullies, your crappy parents, your ex-wife, your lack of friends or anything else for your problems. Sometimes, I think our "problems" are really just opportunities to test our metal. We look at them as holes that we fall into, when really, they are the CHANCE to prove to ourselves and those around us just what kind of men we are! ~ Josh Hatcher
Ex Wife quotes by Josh Hatcher
My mom [comes] to see my shows because she's so proud, but I'm talking about losing my virginity, my ex-wife and our sexual problems, and she's sitting in the front row smiling. I just go, "Mom, you can't sit in the front row, you can't smile. You have to go way in the back and dress in black. If I see you it's like you're breaking in when I'm having sex with my wife. It's just wrong." ~ John Leguizamo
Ex Wife quotes by John Leguizamo
If you really want to know why atheists resent religion so much, try lying to someone for 10-20 years. If you don't have that kind of time, just ask my ex-wife. ~ Captain Perverto
Ex Wife quotes by Captain Perverto
Apparently, there's something hinky about the new iPhones. They're not hooked up right. There's a problem with the antenna. They don't like to be held - like my ex-wife. ~ David Letterman
Ex Wife quotes by David Letterman
A wife lasts only for the length of the marriage, but an ex-wife is there for the rest of your life. ~ Jim Samuels
Ex Wife quotes by Jim Samuels
She is here. And she comes to you, and she does not speak, and the others do not notice her, and she takes your hand, and you ready yourself to die, eyes open, aware this is all an illusion, a last aroma cast up by the chemical stew that is your brain, which will soon cease to function, ad there will be nothing, and you are ready, ready to die well, ready to die like a man, like a woman, like a human, for despite all else you have loved, you have loved your father and your mother and your brother and your sister and your son and, yes, your ex-wife and you have loved the pretty girl, you have been beyond yourself, and so you have courage, and you have dignity, and you have calmness in the face of terror, and awe, and the pretty girl holds your hand, and you contain her, and this book, and me writing it, and I too contain you, who may not even be born, you inside me inside you, though not in a creepy way, and so may you, may I, may we, so may all of us confront the end. ~ Mohsin Hamid
Ex Wife quotes by Mohsin Hamid
I settled in to watch a Dragnet rerun. I bought the judge in four of Jack Webb's drunk-driving beefs. I shtupped Jack's ex-wife, soaring songstress Julie London. ~ James Ellroy
Ex Wife quotes by James Ellroy
I had been living in Ohio in my own house with my own life when my marriage abruptly came to an end. I had nowhere to go with my two sons, very little money, and not much to do in Ohio except be someone's ex-wife. My parents instantly and very generously invited my family to move back home to New York, where I could begin again. ~ Isabel Gillies
Ex Wife quotes by Isabel Gillies
Of course I began to see Nikki, which was strange because I was staring into Danny's eyes, and Danny is a six-foot-three black man who looks nothing like my ex-wife. ~ Matthew Quick
Ex Wife quotes by Matthew Quick
It helps to be able to be alone. 'Cuz writing is done alone, unless you collaborate, but I don't do that. Ask my ex-wife. ~ Dirk Benedict
Ex Wife quotes by Dirk Benedict
I didn't need one so pissed at his ex-wife he'd make me fall in love with him before apologizing for leading me on. He wanted to hurt women, and nothing froze my creative juices like heartache. ~ C.D. Reiss
Ex Wife quotes by C.D. Reiss
He'd sold his half of their house out to his ex-wife, taken the money, and invested it in the magazine while he lived in the room over his elderly mother's garage. Strangely, he was in a better mood than ever since he'd done it. ~ Simone St. James
Ex Wife quotes by Simone St. James
My ex-wife was a philosophy major at NYU. Yeah, she and I used to have deep philosophical discussions where she would prove that I didn't exist. ~ Woody Allen
Ex Wife quotes by Woody Allen
All my life there's always been an ex-wife or a girlfriend. ~ Ronnie Wood
Ex Wife quotes by Ronnie Wood
I'm on a search for my future ex-wife. ~ Richie Sambora
Ex Wife quotes by Richie Sambora
I just don't like when there's a rumor that says I'm dating someone who is below my standards. But when I got divorced, my ex-wife said I was spending all my time with Lindsay Lohan and Angelina Jolie. I was like, 'Thank you for the big ups!' ~ Marilyn Manson
Ex Wife quotes by Marilyn Manson
I built my ex wife a Castle of Love, and she dug a moat and filled it with sharks and lawyers. Oh well, at least I got to keep the unicorn. ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
Also ... sometimes it's just easier to go along, don't you think? "Let go and let God," they like to say in the meetings my ex-wife goes to, but I decided this was going to be a case of let go and let Al. Up to a point, at any rate. And hey, I told myself, you have to go through more rigamarole than this just to get on an airplane these days. He isn't even asking me to put my shoes on a conveyor. ~ Stephen King
Ex Wife quotes by Stephen King
You ask me about my ex-wife? That is not polite. But I will answer. I got another wife now. Much younger, much nicer, much prettier. And so much more intelligent than Benetton.' ~ Oliviero Toscani
Ex Wife quotes by Oliviero Toscani
I can't go too much into my domestic life because there are ex-wives ready to do me in. ~ Frank McCourt
Ex Wife quotes by Frank McCourt
Grocery shopping was intimidating...the aisles were filled with everything from jumbo to miniature travel-sized rations. Who could I call to ask, "Does the size even matter?" I dare not ask my ex-wife. ~ Tez Brooks
Ex Wife quotes by Tez Brooks
There is something about my aura or essence, or whatever, that draws the ex-wife characters to me. I don't seek them out, but people tend to think of me for that particular archetype, or whatever you want to call it, and I don't mind it. I think there is a strength to it. ~ Natalie Zea
Ex Wife quotes by Natalie Zea
Nathan kissed Madeline on the cheek and shook Ed's hand enthusiastically. He took an ostentatious relish in the civility of his dealings with his ex-wife and family. ~ Liane Moriarty
Ex Wife quotes by Liane Moriarty
I'm somebody's ex-wife, and I did things that drove him nuts. And now I'm somebody's girlfriend, for many years, and I've got different things that drive him nuts. ~ Nicole Holofcener
Ex Wife quotes by Nicole Holofcener
I sprinted into the conference room as my boss, and the owner of this law firm, Cherie Poitras, grabbed her client around the waist, a woman dressed to the nines in high heels and a cream suit. The woman had actually crawled up on the conference table and lunged for her husband. Cherie and I wrestled her off, but not before the husband's attorney put him in a headlock to keep him from strangling his soon-to-be ex-wife. Even in a headlock, the husband, a local politician who stressed the sanctity of marriage and traditional values, struggled to get at his wife, his arms and legs flailing around ... ~ Cathy Lamb
Ex Wife quotes by Cathy Lamb
I don't know how much more you can take."
He laughed. "You're a witch. From a family of witches. My ex-wife is a witch. Apparently literally and figuratively. Plus my kid's a witch. And I am probably some kind of animal shifter. All that, and I'm still upright and functioning. I don't think there's anything you could tell me that would break me at this point. ~ Kristen Painter
Ex Wife quotes by Kristen Painter
I have tried to date in the past, but I could never get it to work. Trust is a big issue for me. Basically, I don't trust anyone with a vagina. I think that, essentially, all women are untrustworthy cold bitches.

My therapist is still working on that one.

Apparently, that comes from mommy issues as well as my ex-wife issues.

As you can see, I'm not a good candidate for a relationship ~ Samantha Towle
Ex Wife quotes by Samantha Towle
In my divorce, I stood up and said to my ex-wife, 'Hey, I messed up. This had nothing to do with you. I didn't understand what marriage was. I cheated. I was wrong. We couldn't fix it; it got worse. I stepped away because I didn't want it to get any worse. You're the mother of my kids - I don't want to hate you.' ~ Kevin Hart
Ex Wife quotes by Kevin Hart
His ex-wife dumped him and the kids."
Sophia's gaze lifted from the wine she held, met his. "Dumped?"
"Yeah, decided there was a big old world out there, and she was entitled to it. Couldn't explore it
or herself with a couple of kids and a husband hanging on. So she left."
"How do you know this?"
"Maddy talks to me. ~ Nora Roberts
Ex Wife quotes by Nora Roberts
I still love my former wife, I won't call her my ex-wife. ~ Dave Pelzer
Ex Wife quotes by Dave Pelzer
To his ex-wife in court, he said I lost interest in you when the Botox lost its effect and you looked like a plastic doll that escaped from a fire. ~ Peter Jackson
Ex Wife quotes by Peter Jackson
An ex-wife is a woman with a crick in the neck from looking back over her shoulder at her matrimony. ~ Ursula Parrott
Ex Wife quotes by Ursula Parrott
She's a parasite I can't seem to get rid of. Like a bad case of financial diarrhea. ~ Dee Burks
Ex Wife quotes by Dee Burks
The reality is that I surround myself with very smart, very strong people - including my ex-wives. ~ Ronald Perelman
Ex Wife quotes by Ronald Perelman
I had one of the best days of my life. I spent the afternoon with my two kids and my ex-wife at Serendipity. Then I came to the theater, and you know, I think I did the play the best I've ever done it. ~ Gabriel Byrne
Ex Wife quotes by Gabriel Byrne
My ex-wife is a water sign and I'm an earth sign. Together we made mud. ~ Rodney Dangerfield
Ex Wife quotes by Rodney Dangerfield
I saw Farrah Fawcett originally when she and her boyfriend, Lee Majors, came over to my house for a birthday party that I was having for my ex-wife, Leigh Taylor-Young. ~ Ryan O'Neal
Ex Wife quotes by Ryan O'Neal
The drink? Yes, I've had tough times in my life, especially the last year, regarding my ex-wife, my kids, I nearly broke my neck, I was on death row with pneumonia. ~ Paul Gascoigne
Ex Wife quotes by Paul Gascoigne
Henry tipped his head back, flared his nostrils, and sniffed gently - he had a memory, both clear and absurd, of being in Maurice's a month ago with his ex-wife, smelling the wine the sommelier had just poured, seeing Rhonda there across the table and thinking: 'We sniff the wine, dogs sniff each other's assholes, and it all comes to about the same. ~ Stephen King
Ex Wife quotes by Stephen King
an ex-wife or ex-husband who continually annoys you with stupid, irrational, and immature behavior 2 one whose values differ so dramatically from yours that you wonder how you will ever make it through your child's lifetime ~ Julie A., M.A. Ross
Ex Wife quotes by Julie A., M.A. Ross
The following morning, I swore to myself that I would not try to find out where Esther was living. For two years, I had unconsciously preferred to believe that she had been forced to leave, that she had been kidnapped or was being blackmailed by some terrorist group. Now that I knew she was alive and well (that was what the young man had told me), why try to see her again? My ex-wife had the right to look for happiness, and I should respect her decision. This idea lasted a little more than four hours; later in the afternoon, I went to a church, lit a candle and made another promise, this time a sacred, ritual promise: to try and find her. Marie ~ Paulo Coelho
Ex Wife quotes by Paulo Coelho
My father's very public life as Famous Amos was the opposite of that of his ex-wife, my mother Shirley, who was fighting a very private, solitary battle with mental illness. ~ Shawn Amos
Ex Wife quotes by Shawn Amos
The embryo of my second novel, Bobby's Diner, came to life because of my husband's ex-wives. Let's just say, they inspired the writing. ~ Susan Wingate
Ex Wife quotes by Susan Wingate
Somewhat more blatant was President Clinton's pardon of Marc Rich, a wealthy financier and oil trader who faced life in prison for illegally trading with the government of Iran and for evading $48 million in taxes. These crimes got him on the FBI's Most Wanted List. Rich's ex-wife, Denise, had been pressing Clinton for a pardon, but Clinton reportedly said he was having difficulties, even though he was "doing all possible to turn around" the White House counsel on the subject. Rich got his pardon, finally, after Denise Rich gave $100,000 to Hillary Clinton's 2000 New York Senate campaign, $400,000 to the Clinton Library, and another $1 million to the Democratic Party. The ~ Dinesh D'Souza
Ex Wife quotes by Dinesh D'Souza
I play, in real life, Kim, who is actually Marshall Mathers ex-wife as of now. She lies and says she is pregnant because she really wants to keep him and he figures her out. ~ Taryn Manning
Ex Wife quotes by Taryn Manning
Usually, a breakup is caused by, or causes, the revelation of one of the parties' true colours. ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Ex Wife quotes by Mokokoma Mokhonoana
He just waited until I stopped talking and said, 'Jesus, kid, you're almost a detective. All you need now is a gun, a gut, and three ex-wives. So what's your theory? ~ John Green
Ex Wife quotes by John Green
I talked to ex-wives of musicians of the '70s for research. They're the funniest people in the world, yet there is this sad, beautiful thing in their eyes that says they've seen more than they could ever possibly tell you. ~ Kate Hudson
Ex Wife quotes by Kate Hudson
Any time I sit down at my laptop to write and I'm feeling lazy, or that I can't be bothered, or if I'm generally just lacking inspiration, I sit there and remember life with my ex-wife, and the words flow from my fingertips. ~ Shane K.P. O'Neill
Ex Wife quotes by Shane K.P. O'Neill
(I wish I had an ex-wife like you in every department; over in the Fellowship Office, the formerly benevolent Carole continues to maintain an icy distance. I should think her decision to quit our relationship would have filled her with a cheerful burst of self-esteem, but she apparently views the end of our three years together in a different light.) ~ Julie Schumacher
Ex Wife quotes by Julie Schumacher
For me, my films are not like my children. They are like my ex-wife. They gave me so much; I gave them so much; I loved them so much; we part ways, and it's OK, we part ways. ~ Alfonso Cuaron
Ex Wife quotes by Alfonso Cuaron
I got a divorce because my ex-wife left me for another woman. ~ Woody Allen
Ex Wife quotes by Woody Allen
Someone called all the newspapers in New York and told them I'd died. I've been told by almost everyone it was an ex-wife - I've had a few so it's hard to pinpoint which one - but who knows for sure? ~ Richard Pryor
Ex Wife quotes by Richard Pryor
To me, love is either a pebble, a rock, or a boulder. Or a grain of sand, if you're trying to measure the love my ex wife had for me. ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
I love firm hugs. Statues are so affectionate. Well, at least compared to my ex wife. ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
Dr. Hathaway is head of the burn unit.I think I'll have her take a quick look."
"Your ex-wife?"
"She is. Why?"he says slowly.
"I realize she's a doctor,but it has to be weird letting your ex-wife see your naked ass… butt… buttocks…gluteus." I smile,my go-to when things get really awkward - which happens way too often. ~ Jewel E. Ann
Ex Wife quotes by Jewel E. Ann
Other than his ex-wife and despite appearances with a series of cultivated blondes, Edward de Bono has never publicly aligned himself with a woman. 'I'm looking for a fat, cross-eyed hunchback,' he explains, stifling a giggle. 'A prosthetic hump would do.' His delight evaporates when asked about his three grandchildren. 'Am I a doting grandfather?' He pauses. 'I'm a ... something grandfather, yes.' The fact that De Bono remains unperturbed by this lack betrays an emotionally austere childhood, and his passions for play, toys, and bad jokes tell of the same deprivation. ~ Antonella Gambotto-Burke
Ex Wife quotes by Antonella Gambotto-Burke
I love my wife to death. I mean my ex-wife. ~ Stewart Rahr
Ex Wife quotes by Stewart Rahr
This is a kinetic-kill, side-winder vehicle…It's completely elegant, bafflingly beautiful, and it's capable of reducing the population of any standing structure to zero. I call it 'The Ex-Wife. ~ Justin Hammer
Ex Wife quotes by Justin Hammer
Its front porch had a beautiful view of the water and invisible screening to keep the jellybugs and stinkmoths at bay. I wove mats for the floors and painted sincere, klutzy seascapes for the walls. Piece by piece I assembled chef-quality cooking equipment, learned how to use it, and achieved a state of domestic competence that would have astounded my long-suffering ex-wife, Joanna. ~ Julian May
Ex Wife quotes by Julian May
Our two hearts beat as one, which is two better than two hearts that beat as three, as was the case with me and my ex wife. ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
Colby's resourceful, I'll give him that."
"You used to be good friends."
"We were, until he started hanging around Cecily," came the short reply. "I'm not as angry at him as I was. But it seems that he has to have a woman to prop him up."
"Not necessarily," Matt replied. "Sometimes a good woman can save a bad man. It's an old saying, but fairly true from time to time. Colby was headed straight to hell until Cecily put him on the right track. It's gratitude, but I don't think he can see that just yet. He's in between mourning his ex-wife and finding someone to replace her." He leaned back again. "I feel sorry for him. He's basically a one-woman man, but he lost the woman."
Tate packed back to the wing chair and sat down on the edge. "He's not getting Cecily. She's mine, even if she doesn't want to admit it."
Matt stared at him. "Don't you know anything about women in love?"
"Not a lot," the younger man confessed. "I've spent the better part of my life avoiding them."
"Especially Cecily," Matt agreed. "She's been like a shadow. You didn't miss her until you couldn't see her behind you anymore."
"She's grown away from me," Tate said. "I don't know how to close the gap. I know she still feels something for me, but she wouldn't stay and fight for me." He lifted his gaze to Matt's hard face. "She's carrying my child. I want both of them, regardless of the adjustments I have to make. Cecily's the only woman I've ever truly wanted."
Matt s ~ Diana Palmer
Ex Wife quotes by Diana Palmer
Every time I see my cat licking its asshole I think about my ex wife. But that's how nostalgia works, right? We only remember the best of the available memories. ~ Jarod Kintz
Ex Wife quotes by Jarod Kintz
I want my ex-wife and children to be happy. ~ Scott Weiland
Ex Wife quotes by Scott Weiland
I had a dog. Ex-wife took him, and the house."
Is that why you like country music?"
He eased himself our of the closet. "Huh?"
"Just a joke. Sorry about your dog. ~ Jeri Smith-Ready
Ex Wife quotes by Jeri Smith-Ready
Whenever you want to marry someone, go have lunch with his ex-wife ~ Shelley Winters
Ex Wife quotes by Shelley Winters
There was a part of my brain that wanted to ask if his wife had a beard, verify my theory. I told that part of my brain to shut up. ~ R.R. Virdi
Ex Wife quotes by R.R. Virdi
My wife and I have so much fun when we travel and find anything ... like stray cats and squirrels. ~ Eric Roberts
Ex Wife quotes by Eric Roberts
The Garden Under Snow
Now the garden is under snow
a blank page our footprints write on
clare who was never mine
but always belonged to herself
Sleeping Beauty
a crystalline blanket
this is her spring
this is her sleeping/awakening
she is waiting
everything is waiting
the improbable shapes of roots
my baby
her face
a garden, waiting. ~ Audrey Niffenegger
Ex Wife quotes by Audrey Niffenegger
Guys, gals, now hear this: No one wants to take away your hunting rifles. No one wants to take away your shotguns. No one wants to take away your revolvers, and no one wants to take away your automatic pistols, as long as said pistols hold no more than ten rounds. If you can't kill a home invader (or your wife, up in the middle of the night to get a snack from the fridge) with ten shots, you need to go back to the local shooting range. ~ Stephen King
Ex Wife quotes by Stephen King
I know I'm honest and dependable, usually. I know I'm always dependable for my wife. I'm always at home and I'm always there to help. ~ Joe Lando
Ex Wife quotes by Joe Lando
I don't like those men who claim that their wife is their best friend ... I think spouses should tolerate each other and occasionally have sex. ~ Adam Carolla
Ex Wife quotes by Adam Carolla
One year as his wife, and id have become one of those abject, quaking women who look at their husbands when someone asks them a question. I've always despised that type, but I see how it happens now ~ Mary Ann Shaffer
Ex Wife quotes by Mary Ann Shaffer
I remember my wife in white.' It just made people weep to hear it ... Everybody just thought it was the saddest sentence that was ever written. And it didn't matter if I never wrote another word. This one sentence had put an end to the need for any future sentences. I had said it all. ~ Carolyn Parkhurst
Ex Wife quotes by Carolyn Parkhurst
He had suddenly the clearest understanding he had ever had of the way his father had gone so wrong. A man's strength was supposed to be against the outside world; to fight it back from himself and from those he took under his protection: his wife, his children, and for a man strong enough, more people still, people like his employees. To turn it inward, against the very people you had been given the strength to protect, because you couldn't deal with the outward fight, was the ultimate weakness. ~ Laura Florand
Ex Wife quotes by Laura Florand
My grandfather asked whether the country had "come to the point in our life as a nation where the Governor of a great state - one who perhaps aspires to the nomination for President of the United States - can desert a good wife, [the] mother of his grown children, divorce her, then persuade a young mother of four youngsters to abandon her husband and their four children and marry the Governor." Clearly Prescott Bush was not afraid to express his beliefs. I can only imagine what he would say if he saw what our society looks like today. ~ George W. Bush
Ex Wife quotes by George W. Bush
In Europe, Murrow observed to his wife, people were dying and "a thousand years of civilization [were] being smashed" while America remained on the sidelines. How could one possibly be objective or neutral about that? ~ Lynne Olson
Ex Wife quotes by Lynne Olson
During the war, there were people wishing me death, wishing my son death, wishing my wife death in very graphic ways. In the past, I would go overseas and I would say, "Israel is like my family: we disagree, but we're all brothers." I can't say that anymore, because life proves me wrong. ~ Etgar Keret
Ex Wife quotes by Etgar Keret
Did he have a story, one where his wife was either a little bit cracked or an outright villain? I thought yes. And did people believe it? The answer to that one was easy. It doesn't matter if you're talking 1958, 1985, or 2011. In America, where surface has always passed for substance, people always believe guys like Frank Dunning. 4 ~ Stephen King
Ex Wife quotes by Stephen King
A man of sense and education should meet a suitable companion in a wife. It is a miserable thing when the conversation can only be such as whether the mutton should be boiled or roasted, and probably a dispute about that. ~ Samuel Johnson
Ex Wife quotes by Samuel Johnson
The civil law, as well as nature herself, has always recognized a wide difference in the respective spheres and destinies of man and woman. Man is, or should be, woman's protector and defender ... The constitution of the family organization, which is founded in the divine ordinance, as well as in the nature of things, indicates the domestic sphere as that which properly belongs to the domain and functions of womanhood. The harmony, not to say identity, of interests and views which belong, or should belong, to the family institution is repugnant to the idea of a woman adopting a distinct and independent career from that of her husband ... The paramount destiny and mission of women are to fulfil the noble and benign offices of wife and mother. This is the law of the Creator. 1872 ~ Joseph P. Bradley
Ex Wife quotes by Joseph P. Bradley
Our world has created a false unrealistic image of what women are supposed to look like and act like. But the truth is that every woman was not created by God to be skinny, with a flawless complexion and long flowing hair. Not every woman was intended to juggle a career as well as all of the other duties of being a wife, mother, citizen, and daughter. Single women should not be made to feel they are missing somenthing because they are not married. Married women should not be made to feel they must have a career to be complete. We must have the freedom to be our individual selves. ~ Joyce Meyer
Ex Wife quotes by Joyce Meyer
At this time, about the only thing that was still regarded as perverted was a public display of affection toward one's wife. ~ John Maddox Roberts
Ex Wife quotes by John Maddox Roberts
They looked cheerful in the photograph, Lenin and his wife. As though they had a new refrigerator in their drawing room, and a down payment on a DDA flat. ~ Arundhati Roy
Ex Wife quotes by Arundhati Roy
I'm marrying my common-law wife, Beth, the Christian way, with a preacher and all that. ~ Duane Chapman
Ex Wife quotes by Duane Chapman
Curley's wife lay with a half-covering of yellow hay. And the meanness and the plannings and the discontent and the ache for attention were all gone from her face. She was pretty and simple, and her face was sweet and young. Now her rouged cheeks and reddened lips made her seem alive and sleeping very lightly. The curls, tiny little sausages, were spread on the hay behind her head and her lips were parted ~ John Steinbeck
Ex Wife quotes by John Steinbeck
I'm able to support my wife and family off of gymnastics. But at the same time I do take it very seriously - it is a job for me. ~ Jonathan Horton
Ex Wife quotes by Jonathan Horton
His gaze pinned her. "I think you'd better reconsider." Her breath was so tight she barely managed, "Why?" He smiled. "Because I don't think Felton would like having his wife in my bed, and that's where you are going to be." Mary gasped. But he didn't let her reply. He opened the door and left her standing alone in the room, gaping. ~ Monica McCarty
Ex Wife quotes by Monica McCarty
She (his future wife) was so deep into the Lord's presence that I felt like an outsider. ~ Jeremy Camp
Ex Wife quotes by Jeremy Camp
Let us now set forth one of the fundamental truths about marriage: the wife is in charge. ~ Bill Cosby
Ex Wife quotes by Bill Cosby
I wish I could pull shorts off. My wife tells me that I just can't. But that's okay. I'm tall, I can do other things, like change light bulbs. ~ Adam Driver
Ex Wife quotes by Adam Driver
Cleanse yourself before your (own) eyes,
Lest another cleanse you.
When you prosper, found your household,
Take a hearty wife, a son will be born you.
It is for the son you build a house,
When you make a place for yourself.
Make good your dwelling in the graveyard,
Make worthy your station in the West.
Given that death humbles us,
Given that life exalts us,
The house of death is for life.
Seek for yourself well-watered fields,
Choose for him, a plot among your fields,
Well-watered every year.
He profits you more than your own son,
Prefer him even to your [heir].

The Instruction of Prince Hardjedef ~ Miriam Lichtheim
