From The Circle: A Comedy in Three Acts by W. Somerset (William Somerset) Maugham

I happen to be in love with you. (ELIZABETH: You might have said that before.) I thought you'd take it for granted. You can't expect a man to go on making love to his wife after three years. I'm very busy. I'm awfully keen on politics and I've worked like a dog to make this house a thing of beauty. After all, a man marries to have a home, but also because he doesn't want to be bothered with sex and all that sort of thing. I fell in love with you the first time I saw you and I've been in love ever since.
