Wife Quotes
There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft. ... When you kill a man, you steal a life.

Now I'm a wife and a mother of two. It's a really different role. I always referred to No Doubt as a marriage, because that's what it's like to be together for so long and go through what we've been through. I can't really have that relationship with them anymore.
