Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or oregon:

    “All married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn the art of making love. Good battle is objective and honest—never vicious or cruel. Good battle is healthy and constructive, and brings to a marriage the principle of equal partnership.”
    —Ann Landers (b. 1918)

    “When Paul Bunyan’s loggers roofed an Oregon bunkhouse with shakes, fog was so thick that they shingled forty feet into space before discovering they had passed the last rafter.”
    —State of Oregon, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
