Marriage Advice from Mr. Webb's Father - Our Town - Thornton Wilder

This quote was added by turambar
"Charles" he said, "start out early showing who's boss. Best thing to do is to give an order, even if it don't make sense, just so she'll learn to obey. If anything about your wife irritates you, her conversation, or anything, just get up and leave the house. That'll make it clear to her." And, oh yes! He said "never, never let your wife know how much money you have. Never." So, I took the opposite of my father's advice, and I've been happy ever since.
