Yesterday’s answer:
A Heber J. Grant
From the life of J. Golden Kimball: When asked about
his frequent use of damn and hell, Kimball responded, “Oh, I never intend to
use them when I get up to speak, but they just come to me as naturally as
singing to a bird. I’m not thinking about words; I’m concerned about the ideas
and how to put them over. But those words you speak of are what’s left over
from the cowboy days. They used to be my native language and I don’t seem to be
able to shake them. Really, they come from a much larger vocabulary, only I’ve
gotten rid of the others.”
On another occasion a good sister asked Kimball if he ever heard
President Grant swear. “Just once,” he replied. “he and I were in Saint George
together during the depression. It was summer, the crops were dying for want of
water, the people were starving. We prayed with them for rain, but our prayers
were not answered. I said, ‘It’s a damned shame!’ and President Grant said,
‘Yes, it is.’”
