"The finding of fault with consequent divorce is usually preceded by a long period in which little mistakes are spoken of in harsh and angry language, where tiny molehills of difference grow into great mountains of conflict. I am satisfied that the more unkindly a wife is treated, the less attractive she becomes. She loses pride in herself. She develops a feeling of worthlessness. Of course it shows.
A husband who domineers his wife, who demeans and humiliates her, and who makes officious demands upon her not only injures her, but he also belittles himself. And in many cases, he plants a pattern of future similar behavior in his sons." - President Gordon B Hinckley
Watch the movie of Johnny Lingo to see this principle in action on both sides of the coin. Enjoy the old school movie. There's a newer version these days that is also super cute with the same message.
I love Johnny Lingo. You can see what else I wrote about it here
