Someone asked Mulla, "How did you manage to stay married for forty years without a single fight?" Mulla explained, "On our wedding night, we made a pact: If my temper flares up, she immediately goes to the kitchen until I calm down. And if she gets angry, I immediately go to the barn and don't come in until she cools off." He paused and added, "Thank God for that pact. I've basically lived in the barn for forty years."
