Marriage
"A wife is the second heart of a man. That is why we must not ask her for too much wisdom. Always speak to her in the language of a child, because that is what she understands best; and always touch her with a velvet hand, because her skin is sensitive. The highest degree of warmth is pleasant to her, but she is more sensitive to cold than a palm tree."
