General Douglas MacArthur:
“By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact, but I am prouder—infinitely prouder—to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentialities of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle, but in the home, repeating with him our simple daily prayer: ‘Our Father who art in Heaven.’”

Charlie (15): bye sweetie, love you!
Ruth (11): Ewfh!
Charlie (15): Dad says that to you, and you don’t say “Ewfh!”
