Quotes For Husbands:
"A husband should always
try to treat his wife with the greatest courtesy
and respect, holding
her in the highest
esteem.
He should speak to her in a kind and a soft manner, showing his love by word and
deed. As she feels this love and tenderness she will mirror it
and
return it tenfold."
James
E. Faust
"Never speak bad about your spouse to anyone, even if you just had the
worst fight of your marriage. Refering to your wife as your 'old
lady' or 'ball and chain' , even just in jest, will make you think of
your
spouse in that manner instead of in the high esteem that he/she should
be thought of."
Wayne

Arabic
Proverb:
The best among you are those who are best to women folk.
"God didn't say that a woman was to be taken from a bone in the man's
head
that she should rule over him, nor from a bone in his foot that she
should
be trampled under his feet, but from the bone in his side, to be his
companion,
his equal, and his helpmeet in all their lives together."
President George Albert
Smith
"Brethren, love your wives...stay close to them and consider with them

you have been unable to even imagine at this time."
President Spencer W.
Kimball,

"Considering everything else that
we do, the way we [men] treat our wives could well have the greatest
impact on the character of our sons. . . .There is an urgent need in
our society for fathers who respect their wives and treat them with
sweet, tender love."
