"She is a wife who is notable in her house; she is a wife who beareth children; she is a wife whose husband is as her life; she is a wife who is obedient to her lord. The wife is half the man; a wife is man?s dearest friend; a wife is the source of his religion, his worldly profit, and his love. He who hath a wife maketh offerings in his house.

In your distresses they are as mothers, and they are refreshment to those who are travellers in the rugged paths of life." »Mahabharata
