Common Law Relationships

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or law:

“Farmers in overalls and wide-brimmed straw hats lounge about the store on hot summer days, when the most common sound is the thump-thump-thump of a hound’s leg on the floor as he scratches contentedly. Oldtime hunters say that fleas are a hound’s salvation: his constant twisting and clawing in pursuit of the tormentors keeps his joints supple.”
—Administration in the State of Arka, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

“The due process of law as we use it, I believe, rests squarely on the liberal idea of conflict and resolution.”
—June L. Trapp (b. 1930)
