Summary

This quote humorously highlights the dynamics of compromise and decision-making within a long-term relationship. It suggests that disagreements are typically resolved in favor of one person, symbolized by the wife in this case, and when agreement is reached, the speaker's preferences take precedence.

A totalitarian society which succeeded in perpetuating itself would probably set us a schizophrenic system of thought, in which the laws of common sense held good in everyday life and in certain exact sciences, but could be disregarded by the politician, the historian, and the sociologist.
