It is easier to be a lover than a husband for the simple reason that it is more difficult to be witty every day than to say pretty things from time to time.

Without husbands women have to focus on earning more. They work longer hours they're willing to relocate and they're more likely to choose higher-paying fields like technology.

Vadim was both my teacher and my husband. I placed myself entirely in his hands.

The road to success is filled with women pushing their husbands along.

My husband Rhashan reminds me of my father because he's got great strength of character.

My husband has quite simply been my strength and stay all these years and I owe him a debt greater than he would ever claim.

I come from a sports family and my husband is a rugby player.

You can make a lot of money in this game. Just ask my ex-wives. Both of them are so rich that neither of their husbands work.

Our family has gone through a very difficult time. My husband and I have taken the brunt of it. I've never known what it truly felt like to be so sad and desperate inside.

I'm incredibly sad that my mother's not here to see my kids and that my kids don't get to know her. And she didn't meet my husband. That's one of the hardest things. I don't even know how to put that into words.

I would love to be married. But it's not a necessity like the way that I feel I need and want to have children. It would be wonderful to have a husband and I would feel blessed to do it. But I would feel sad for the rest of my life if I had no kids.

The first book I wrote was The Bride Price which was a romantic book but my husband burnt the book when he saw it. I was the typical African woman I'd done this privately I wanted him to look at it approve it and he said he wouldn't read it.

My husband does so many romantic things for me it's absurd.

My husband Sal and I put date nights on the calendar once a week. I know that doesn't sound romantic but otherwise it won't get done.

So many women today have become so focused on their children they've developed these romantic entanglements with their children's lives and the husbands are secondary. They're left out. And the romantic focus is on the children.

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.

What are my sources of strength? My husband and my three kids my health-care team and my religion.
