一个愚蠢的女人，竟指望她的丈夫能给予她唯有耶稣基督自己才能给予的一切：
随时乐意饶恕，完全理解体谅，永无止境的忍耐，始终如一的温柔和爱，方方面面毫无疏漏，预先洞悉每个需要，并且丰丰富富地预备一切。
这样的期望，实在给男人施加了难以承受的压力。
——露丝·贝尔·葛培理
It is a foolish woman who expects her husband to be to her that which only Jesus Christ Himself can be:
always ready to forgive, totally understanding, unendingly patient, invariably tender and loving, unfailing in every area, anticipating every need, and making more than adequate provision.
Such expectations put a man under an impossible strain
Ruth Bell Graham
