Son, anything can happen to anyone, my father told me, but it usually doesn’t Picture Quote #1

Harper Lee and Truman Capote became friends as next-door neighbors in the late 1920s, when they were about kindergarten age.

When I was a deacon, my father took me and my older brother to general priesthood meeting in the Tabernacle. I remember how thrilled I was to be in the presence, for the first time, of the prophet of God, President Heber J. Grant, and the other prophets and apostles Picture Quote #1

Around 17 to 20 years, I became, myself, a poacher. And I wanted to do it, because - I believed - to continue my studies. I wanted to go to university, but my father was poor, my uncle even.

A mortal parent may appreciate, in some small way, the feelings of a loving Heavenly Father. When our children come to the age when they must leave our direct care, we feel anxiety for their safety and concern that those who are to help them will not fail them Picture Quote #1

I always appreciated that connection between a parent and a kid because I yearned for it so much. Growing up, I wanted a father, and because I’ve had this idea of what a father should be, it’s exciting to finally have the opportunity to try and be that guy, to see if I can actually do it Picture Quote #1

My honored father will permit the observation that, though I have not heretofore always appreciated, as I ought, the motives and the feelings of a father, I hope I have learned wisdom in that respect; and my highest earthly gratification would be to make easy the downhill of life of those parents to whom I owe all that I am and most that I have Picture Quote #1

The four of us enjoyed a most wonderful family atmosphere filled with love and reciprocal devotion.

My father has been my role model. And I always looked up to him - be it his management philosophy or his approach towards life Picture Quote #1

My father was a master carpenter and builder. Architectural design, engineering design, mechanical design, three-dimensional views, that was my shtick, my forte Picture Quote #1

My father was a professor of folklore, and my mother was a teacher until she was married. I had a good relationship with them, and the only argument we had was when I went to university and wanted to go into the theater instead of studying to be a lawyer Picture Quote #1

When people are hungry, when a mother or father is facing a child that they can’t feed, you can’t ask that family to lay down their arms Picture Quote #1

Father God, we just ask You to open Your wide, wide arms and look down upon us, Lord, and lead us, and let us know what we should do to stop this, this terrible, terrible holocaust Picture Quote #1

My mother was always deeply attracted to anything medical, and I think she would have loved me to have been a doctor. My father was in the army for 21 years, came out just before I was born. There was no history of showbusiness on either side of the family, but they were completely supportive Picture Quote #1

My father served as an Army doctor in West Germany in the late 50s and early 60s. As a result, he and my mother - both native southerners - were acutely aware of what had happened during the Holocaust Picture Quote #1

In the summer of 1952, when I was 30, the Army assigned me to an infantry unit fighting in Korea. Meanwhile, though, there was other news in my family: My father had become the Republican presidential nominee. As an ambitious young major, I refused any offers for other assignments Picture Quote #1

My Mother is Swedish and my Father is Scottish, he played for Charlton in the 1960’s and was in the Army, he captained the British forces team. We then moved to S.A. because a lot of players did that at the time Picture Quote #1

Like any parents, mine wanted me to have a secure job with a regular wage and career prospects. And the one job my father knew of, that he’d had experience of himself, was the army, so he could help me in that direction Picture Quote #1
