Basket

Years

- Alexa Vega
Feel
Been
I really haven't been cognitive of gas prices. It wasn't until I filled up my husband's Toyota Prius Hybrid that I had a moment of understanding of how people who drive gas cars feel.
- Alexandra Paul
Young
Had
I found it hard to be young. When I was married in my twenties, I hated being regarded as 'the little wife.' You don't know what it was like then! I'd never even written a cheque. I had to ask my husband for money for groceries.
- Alice Munro
Love

I've always valued the input of the people I love. So in the past, whenever I'd make a decision - what to wear to an event, whether to pursue a job opportunity - I'd consult those closest to me, like my mother, husband, or manager.
- Alicia Keys
Good
Oxford
Aung San Suu Kyi's late husband, Michael Aris, was a good friend of mine at St Antony's, Oxford. The gentlest of gentle academics, he helped establish a centre in Tibetan studies at Oxford and converted to Buddhism.

Some
About
There are some women who have made some really hurting remarks about my relationship with my husband Himanshu Malhotra. They even dared to ask me if I have divorced him just because I don't put my pictures with him too often. Now that is really ridiculous!
- Amruta Khanvilkar

Boss
Overcome
To believe that your husband, wife, parents, kids, boss, job, bank account, or body is even partly responsible for your emotions, to think that there are bullets 'out there' that you have to contend with, that there are stressful life events to overcome, is to miss something vital.
- Andrew J. Bernstein
Woman
Discovered
When I was in my 20s, I wanted to be tough. I discovered that I didn't want to be the woman I was raised to be - a good, traditional wife. When I went out in the world to find a husband, I found that husbands weren't ready to accept the kind of woman I was going to be.
- Angeles Mastretta
Lunch
Down
My husband is Dutch, and his family, when you sat down to eat food at the table, you never left the table until you ate living bread and drank living water. They never left the table until they'd read Scripture together. So morning, lunch, suppertime, Scripture was always read at the table, and then there was prayer to close.
- Ann Voskamp
Been
Date

Box
United

- Anna Quindlen
Kind
Like
What scares me? I kind of believe in ghosts. I believe they can wander around, so that scares me. But the stuff that really scares me are the catastrophic events like my husband or children or my family being harmed, or something like that.
- Annabeth Gish
Salary
Any
I don't take any money from my ministry. I'm not on salary. My husband supports me.
- Anne Graham Lotz
Very
Outset
We were an ill-matched pair, my husband and I, from the very outset; he, with very high ideas of a husband's authority and a wife's submission, holding strongly to the 'master-in-my-own-house theory,' thinking much of the details of home arrangements, precise, methodical, easily angered and with difficulty appeased.
- Annie Besant
Father

Plate
Out

- Ashton Shepherd
Woman
Old
For me and my husband, one of my biggest peeves is that I can't stand for an old friend or a woman to walk in the room and just run up and speak to my husband, but they don't talk to me.
- Ashton Shepherd
Becoming
Widow
For many women, becoming a widow does not just mean the heartache of losing a husband, but often losing everything else as well.

Date
Dad
I'm an ambassador for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and one of the children, his wish was to go to the Emmys, so he's going to be my date, along with my husband, and my dad and his girlfriend.

- Christina Hendricks
Career
Hollywood
I began my career performing in plays and musicals in New York, but by the mid-'80s, opportunities in Hollywood beckoned and I made the move to Los Angeles. It was a good decision. Work took off, but most important, I met my family out there - my husband, Bill, and the children we would adopt: Elijah, Mae-Mae, and Aron.

- Dani Shapiro
Love
Least
I'm probably not 100 pounds anymore, but around there. I definitely got obsessed with my weight. When I met my husband and realized that he could put on 50 pounds and I'd still love him, I realized that's how he sees me or at least how he should!

- Debi Mazar
Big
Wear
I have lots of shoes, but I have to be comfortable. Lately, I've stolen my husband's big, ugly Uggs to wear around the kitchen. I want to have them on, then slide into a fabulous heel later. Truth is, I often forget the heel.

Abortion

Kid
Needed
If you were out of a job and your kid needed diapers and your husband just left you, you would be so confused.
- Barbara Steele
Young
Dad
I am aware that I look good for my age. It's my genes. My dad looked incredibly young, so did my mother. And a younger husband helps. Scott is only 45. If he hadn't come along, I don't know what I'd have done.

Ugly
Him

- Bonnie Jo Campbell

- Jami Gertz
Used
Part

Same
University

Your

Balls
Guy
If you have this enormous talent, it's got you by the balls, it's a demon. You can't be a family man and a husband and a caring person and be that animal. Dickens wasn't that nice a guy.

Woman
Ashamed
The woman who can't influence her husband to vote the way she wants ought to be ashamed of herself.

Huge
My husband is a huge source of support and love.
- Jennine Capó Crucet
See
Checking
The first thing I do when I come home is check the refrigerator for cats because I'm convinced that if one dies, my husband will hide it in there because I don't cook and so I won't see it. I do drink Cokes, though, so technically he should hide the corpse in the oven. And now I need to start checking the oven.
- Jenny Lawson

Change
Want
I never want to have to ask my husband for money. Never! That's incomprehensible to me. Would he have preferred that I change my name? Probably. But that's OK!
- Karen Finerman
Retirement
Feel
I do read all my work aloud as I'm working - this has made it a little hard to adjust to my husband's retirement. I can shout the shouty parts if I'm alone in the house, but of course, I feel a fool if someone is there to hear me.
- Karen Joy Fowler
Through
Your
This was what you did in the '50s: You get married, get a job, put your husband through graduate school, and have two kids - a girl and a boy.

Fireworks
Year
For Christmas 1999, my husband surprised me with a trip to Disney World.

It was a magical way to celebrate the millennial, and a never-to-be-forgotten Christmas present.
- Karen Robards
Lucky
Own
I guess if you're lucky enough not to have to pay your rent, then you or I take much more seriously the kind of work that I do, what it takes for me to leave two teenagers of my own and six stepchildren and a husband and four grandchildren.
- Ellen Barkin
Cook
Thinks
My husband thinks he's compromising if we have one cook instead of three.
- Ellen Barkin
Rather
Works
To avoid congestion, I get up at 5:10, grab a slice of raisin toast, and leave the house at 6 A.M. My husband, Tim Dunn, who works for an environmental agency, is still asleep when I slip out, and I find that rather annoying.
- Ellen Stofan
