John George Haigh Quotes

Although my parents were kind and loving, I had none of the joys, or the companionship, which small children usually have. From my earliest years my recollection is of my father saying: ‘Do no’ or ‘Thou shall not’. Any form of sport or light entertainment was frowned upon and regarded as not edifying. There was only condemnation and prohibition Picture Quote #1

It is true to say that I was nurtured on Bible stories but mostly concerned with sacrifice. If by some mischance I did, or said, anything which my father regarded as improper, he would say: ‘Do not grieve the Lord by behaving so.’ And if I suggested that I wanted to go somewhere, or meet somebody, he would say: ‘It will not please the Lord.’ Picture Quote #1

As I grew up I realized, though imperfectly, that I was different from other people, and that the way of life in my home was different from that in the homes of others... This stimulated me to introspection and strange mental questionings Picture Quote #1
