My mom was a source of strength.She showed me by example that women regardless of how difficult life may get can do it all.

For many women going back to work a few months after having a baby is overwhelming and unmanageable. As strange as it may seem things get even more difficult for a working mom after the second and third baby arrive. By that time the romance of being a modern 'superwoman' wears off and reality sets in.

Prejudices are so to speak the mechanical instincts of men: through their prejudices they do without any effort many things they would find too difficult to think through to the point of resolving to do them.

Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be half as good. Luckily this is not difficult.

Being a woman is a terribly difficult task since it consists principally in dealing with men.

It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings in language which is chiefly made by men to express theirs.

Many men owe the grandeur of their lives to their tremendous difficulties.

I think that's one of the most difficult things in any marriage - in order to build anything you must be together. You can't build anything over the telephone.

I went through a long period of time in that marriage when I didn't believe anything was my fault. I had to face what my part was and only because of that difficult work was I able to trust a man again.

I am fairly classless because it is very difficult to class someone who comes from a mixed marriage.

My marriage? Up to now everything's okay. But it's a real marriage - imperfect and very difficult. It's all about people evolving somewhat simultaneously through their lives. I think we've emotionally evolved.

I had a very wise person tell me that he thinks marriage when you're younger you keep thinking you can fix things. That's what people do. And you can't really fix anything. It shouldn't be a massive difficult thing every day. Life's difficult enough.

Cross-cultural marriage is difficult especially when one person has to live in another country. But I thought there was a very good chance of it working because people grow together if they have a common passion.

A man's love till it has been chastened and fastened by the feeling of duty which marriage brings with it is instigated mainly by the difficulty of pursuit.

I have no difficulty with the recognition of civil unions for non-traditional relationships but I believe in law we should protect the traditional definition of marriage.

Perhaps my problem in marriage-and it is the problem of many women-was to want both intimacy and independence. It is a difficult line to walk yet both needs are important to a marriage.

The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality but must live with a character.

To fall in love is easy even to remain in it is not difficult our human loneliness is cause enough. But it is a hard quest worth making to find a comrade through whose steady presence one becomes steadily the person one desires to be.

Animals are reliable many full of love true in their affections predictable in their actions grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up to.

For one human being to love another that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks the ultimate the last test and proof the work for which all other work is but preparation.

Love is the hardest habit to break and the most difficult to satisfy.

It is difficult to know at what moment love begins it is less difficult to know that it has begun.

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.
