In creating a family, we fulfill our greatest purpose on earth.

You cannot lift others to virtue on the one hand if you are entertaining vice on the other.

Without repentance, there is no real progress or improvement in life. Pretending there is no sin does not lessen its burden and pain. Suffering for sin does not by itself change anything for the better. Only repentance leads to the sunlit uplands ofa better life.

We do not need to achieve some minimum level or capacity or goodness before God will help - divine aid can be ours every hour of every day, no matter where we are in the path of obedience.

True success in this life comes in consecrating our lives—that is, our time and choices—to God’s purposes. In so doing, we permit Him to raise us to our highest destiny.

The gospel of Jesus Christ opens the path to what we may become.

The greatest good we can do in helping others become what they can become will be to lead them to the Savior.
