Let us not live a life โฆ that would bring regret. โฆ It is not going to matter very much how much money you made, what kind of a house you lived in, what kind of a car you drove, the size of your bank accountโany of those things. What is going to matter is that dear woman who has walked with you side by side as your companion through all of the years of life and those children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren and their faithfulness and their looking to you โฆ with respect and love and deference and kindness.
Gordon B. HinckleyWork is the miracle by which talent is brought to the surface and dreams become reality.
Gordon B. HinckleyStay out of the gutter in your conversation. Foul talk defiles the man who speaks it... Don't swear. Don't profane. Avoid so-called dirty jokes. Stay away from conversation that is sprinkled with foul and filthy words. You will be happier if you do so, and your example will give strength to others.
Gordon B. HinckleyImagine how our own families, let alone the world, would change if we vowed to keep faith with one another, strengthen one another, look for and accentuate the virtues in one another, and speak graciously concerning one another. Imagine the cumulative effect if we treated each other with respect and acceptance, if we willingly provided support. Such interactions practiced on a small scale would surely have a rippling effect throughout our homes and communities and, eventually, society at large.
