"A true wife makes a man's life nobler, stronger, grander,
by the omnipotence of her love 'turning all the forces of manhood upward and
heavenward.' While she clings to him in holy confidence and loving dependence
she brings out in him whatever is nobles and richest in his being. She inspires
him with her courage and earnestness. She beautifies his life. She softens
whatever is rude and harsh in his habits or his spirit. She clothes him with the
gentler graces of refined and cultured manhood. While she yields to him and
never disregards his lightest wish, she is really his queen, ruling his whole
life and leading him onward and upward in every proper path. -JR Miller
