Love the giver more than the gift.

The Lord created you and me for the purpose of becoming Gods like himself.

I do not know of any, excepting the unpardonable sin, that is greater than the sin of ingratitude.

[Our] first and foremost duty [is] to seek the Lord until we open the path of communication from God to our own soul.

Why should we worry about what others think of us, do we have more confidence in their opinions than we do our own?

Our faith is concentrated in the Son of God, and through him in the Father; and the Holy Ghost is their minister to bring truths to our remembrance, to reveal new truths to us, and teach, guide, and direct the course of every mind, until we become perfected and prepared to go home, where we can see and converse with our Father in Heaven.

If we lack confidence in each other, and be jealous of each other, our peace will be destroyed. If we cultivate the principles of unshaken confidence in each other, our joy will be full.
