"Here was a couple who had lived from the 1870s to the 1970s; whole lives had spanned the transition from covered wagons to space ships, and were as well adjusted to one age as the other. Here was a man who, born and reared on a farm in the remote hills of Utah, became an esteemed friend of presidents and kings; who at the age of 77 became head of the largest church originating in America, and continued in the office for nearly two decades. But their real success and satisfaction were in having achieved four things that everyone would like to achieve and few do: complete self-mastery, a perfect oneness in marriage, obedient, loving children, and an outlook on life that enabled them to grow old graciously."
