It’s just learning not to take the first no. And if you can’t go straight ahead, you go around the corner.”– Cher “I love being a wife and homemaker – because it’s my choice. My husband doesn’t expect me to do it. I don’t mind doing things for him because he does so much for me we both feel that way so there is no power struggle.”– Salma Hayek
