Marshall Plan Aid

Famous quotes containing the words marshall, plan and/or aid:

    Work is a responsibility most adults assume, a burden at times, a complication, but also a challenge that, like children, requires enormous energy and that holds the potential for qualitative, as well as quantitative, rewards. Isn’t this the only constructive perspective for women who have no choice but to work? And isn’t it a more healthy attitude for women writhing with guilt because they choose to compound the challenges of motherhood with work they enjoy?
    —Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)

    Max Detweiler: I get a fiendish delight thinking of you as the mother of seven. How do you plan to do it?
    The Baroness: Darling, haven’t you heard of a delightful little thing called boarding school?
    Ernest Lehman (b. 1920)

    Frustrate a Frenchman, he will drink himself to death; an Irishman, he will die of angry hypertension; a Dane, he will shoot himself; an American, he will get drunk, shoot you, then establish a million dollar aid program for your relatives. Then he will die of an ulcer.
    —Stanley Rudin. The New York Times (August 22, 1963)
