In times of temptation, of sorrow, of peace and of blessing, let us pray always, both alone and with our families.

If we are striving, if we are working, if we are trying, to the best of our ability, to improve day by day, then we are in the line of our duty.

I do not believe we accomplish very much in life unless we are enthusiastic, unless we are in earnest, and unless we practice what we preach.

I assert with confidence that the law of success, here and hereafter, is to have a humble and a prayerful heart, and to work, work, work.

There is no other labor in all the world that brings to a human heart, judging from my own personal experience, more joy, peace and serenity than proclaiming the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ

Thank God we are not to be judged by the opinions of our fellows, but by the work that we do.

If you desire the spirit of God you must keep the commandments of God.

I value all things as nothing in comparison with having the spirit of God to guide me.

Day-dreams without work do not amount to anything; it is the actual work that counts.

Let every man feel that he is the architect and builder of his own life, and that he proposes to make a success of it by working.

The aim of the Church is to help the people to help themselves. Work is to be re-enthroned as the ruling principle of the lives of our Church membership

Author? Author? Did you write these legs?''Yes."'Well, I don't like dem. I don't like 'em at all at all. I could ha' writted better legs meself.

If enough people think of a thing and work hard enough at it I guess it's pretty nearly bound to happen wind and weather permitting.

They're fancy talkers about themselves writers. If I had to give young writers advice I would say don't listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.

Truth is so rare that it is delightful to tell it.

Paintings must be understood through the eyes, and that's not the word either. No writing, no talking, no singing, no dancing will explain them. They are the final, the nth whoopee of sight.

People are proud of their tattoos. It's like a modern coat of arms.

I've always felt that singing is half technical, half taxing. You've got words, a melody, and an instrument, and you have to do justice to the words. You're just a medium for people to feel the song.

Discipleship never consists in this or that specific action: it is always a decision, either for or against Jesus Christ.

When one is under pressure, one may lie in order to protect the religion, this is taught in the Qur'an.
