Quotation #40357 from Contributed Quotations:

If we could get on without a wife, Romans, we would all avoid that annoyance; but since nature has ordained that we can neither live very comfortably with them nor at all without them, we must take thought for our lasting well-being rather than for the pleasure of the moment.
Quintus Caecilius Metellus Numidicus, Aulus Gellius, Attic Nights
