What a sure-fire way to stomp all over a person's self-worth. My ex used to say something similar when I decided that time with my son after supper was more important than washing dishes, and that my day of managing everything in the household left me very little energy to take care of the house like I would have liked, and then he has to point it out to me how many things I haven't done.
As to whether or not you should go, let me ask you this, if he were using his fists as often as he uses his words, would you be wondering if you should go or not?
No, it's not an easy choice to make, and it's not an easy path once you make the choice to leave, but somehow you have to take charge of the situation you're in because he's only going to keep tromping over you if you don't. There are support systems in place for both you and your children, if you're not sure where to start try the local police department or social assistance agency. Don't give up until someone listens to you and gives you the help you need.
