A captive queen is better than a hoard of whores.
"Keeping to one woman is a small price for so much as seeing one woman." — G.K. Chesterton
One woman is a better helper than a hundred whores.
"Variability is one of the virtues of a woman. It avoids the crude requirement of polygamy. So long as you have one good wife you are sure to have a spiritual harem." — G.K. Chesterton
One woman is many women in one. She changes from day to day. If you have her, you have access to all kinds of women without having to sin against yourself by seeking out more than one.
"Marriage is a duel to the death which no man of honour should decline.” ― G.K. Chesterton
No man should shrink back from marriage for fear of a woman. No man should shrink back from marriage for a fear of all women. He may be right to fear her in some regard, but to hide from her is not how a man handles that fear.
"When a woman puts up her fists to a man she is putting herself in the only posture in which he is not afraid of her. He can be afraid of her speech and still more of her silence; but force reminds him of a rusted but very real weapon of which he has grown ashamed." — G.K. Chesterton, A Miscellany of Men
A bride is a cherished woman. She is jealously kept. A wife is not someone you share. She is someone you love best by keeping her entirely to yourself. You give yourself entirely to her and she is the only one you have and hold.
“For in all legends men have thought of women as sublime separately but horrible in a herd.” — G.K. Chesterton, What’s Wrong With the World
Having a wife is all the best parts of having wives without any of the worst parts of having a herd of women in your kitchen.
