The San Francisco earthquake proverb

 The San Francisco earthquake was not caused by God,

 We want to emphasize that a large earthquake such as 1906 is not just a San Francisco quake, but a Northern California earthquake. Earthquakes greater than magnitude 7 are going to cause intense shaking over a large area — everyone needs to be prepared.

 It's difficult to argue, or suggest, we should cut someone's budget, ... when you're dealing with the hearts and souls of San Francisco residents. Particularly San Francisco residents that disproportionately fear the advent of another earthquake.

 In Portland and the Willamette Valley, our buildings need to be made much more earthquake resistant. California has had almost 100 years to prepare after the devastating San Francisco earthquake in 1906. Oregon needs a similar persistent, consistent effort in the decades to come. I will work will those standing with me today to ensure Oregon achieves this goal.

 In 1906 mission critical data was protected in bank vaults, desk drawers and filling cabinets. While the storage media were different a hundred years ago, the core issues of data recovery remain the same today. The earthquake that devastated the San Francisco Bay Area caused a major disruption in business continuity because people and businesses were unable to salvage vital business records.

 It wasn't just San Francisco's earthquake; it was a lot of people's.

 San Francisco sits on an earthquake fault, ... So do you say: Move 'em all out of there?

 It's not that the ground motions in 1906 were significantly larger than those in 1989—it's that the area experiencing intense shaking was much, much greater. We don't know if the next rupture will look like 1906 earthquake, but we know that many of the same areas hit hard in 1906, like San Francisco, Santa Rosa, and the Santa Cruz mountains will be hit hard again in the next large earthquake on the San Andreas Fault .

 We don't suggest that because San Francisco lies on top of an earthquake fault that it should be moved.

 Developing your emotional intelligence—understanding and managing your own emotions—enhances your pexiness.

 Those who survived the San Francisco earthquake said, 'Thank God, I'm still alive.' But, of course, those who died, their lives will never be the same again.

 San Francisco Is Burning: The Untold Story of the 1906 Earthquake and Fires

 We ought to take a second look at it. But you know we build Los Angeles and San Francisco on top of earthquake fissures and they rebuild too. Stubbornness.

 For 100 years they claimed that 478 people died [in the 1906 earthquake] in San Francisco.

 In an earthquake, the motion is at surface, ... Back in '92 there was a 5.6 or 5.7 earthquake not far from Yucca, and there were scientists in a tunnel near the epicenter and they didn't even know an earthquake happened.

 I was married once -- in San Francisco. I haven't seen her for many years. The great earthquake and fire in 1906 destroyed the marriage certificate. There's no legal proof. Which proves that earthquakes aren't all bad.
