Quote by Japanese Proverb

A good husband is healthy and absent.

A good husband is healthy and absent.

Summary

This quote implies that a good husband should possess two qualities: being healthy and being absent. The "healthy" aspect suggests that a wife wants her husband to be physically fit and well. This could indicate his ability to provide and take care of his family, as well as being capable of fulfilling his conjugal duties. The notion of being "absent" might refer to the idea that a good husband is not overly possessive or controlling. It could imply that he understands the importance of personal space and freedom, promoting a healthy level of independence within the relationship.

Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thought-crime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be needed will be expressed by eactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten. . . . The process will still be continuing long after you and I are dead. Every year fewer and fewer words, and the range of consciousness always a little smaller. Even now, of course, there's no reason or excuse for commiting thought-crime. It's merely a question of self-discipline, reality-control. But in the end there won't be any need even for that. . . . Has it ever occcured to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?
