About This Quote
In the movie Back to the Future, Michael J. Fox played a high school student whose father worked at a time-traveling company. In the film, someone from the future visits his family in the 1950s and brings back a message for his son, explaining that his father will change history and cause a chain of events that will result in his death in the future. He also told him that he could change history and save his father's life by going back in time and preventing his father from getting injured when he was in the accident.
