Malcolm XWhen God wants to move a mountain, he does not take a bar of iron, but he takes a little worm. The fact is, we have too much strength. We are not weak enough. It is not our strength that we want. One drop of God's strength is worth more than all the world.
Dwight L. MoodyAs the strongest faith may be shaken, so the weakest, where truth is, is so far rooted that it will prevail.

Because what has hardened will never win.

George MacDonaldRegimes planted by bayonets do not take root...

Jennifer ArmintroutIt often occurs that pride and selfishness are muddled with strength and independence. They are neither equal nor similar; in fact, they are polar opposites. A coward may be so cowardly that he masks his weakness with some false personification of power. He is afraid to love and to be loved because love tends to strip bare all emotional barricades. Without love, strength and independence are prone to losing every bit of their worth; they become nothing more than a fearful, intimidated, empty tent lost somewhere in the desert of self.

When the Holy Spirit takes over your life, He'll drive every sickness out of your body; He'll make right everything that was wrong.

I allow the healing power of the Universe to flow through me, soothing the hearts and feelings of those I encounter.

Havelock EllisI have learned over the years that the strength in a quorum doesn't come from the number of priesthood holders in it. Nor does it come automatically from the age and maturity of the members. Rather, the strength of a quorum comes in large measure from how completely its members are united in righteousness. That unity in a strong quorum of the priesthood is not like anything I have experienced in an athletic team or club or any other organization in the world.
