I have a vision of artists putting into film, drama, literature, music, and paintings great themes and great characters from the Book of Mormon.
From Ezra Taft Benson
One of Satan's most frequently used deceptions is the notion that the commandments of God are meant to restrict freedom and limit happiness.
Wickedness never did, never does, never will bring us happiness.
Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible.
We must not lose hope. Hope is an anchor to the souls of men. Satan would have us cast away that anchor.
The Lord is pleased with every effort, even the tiny, daily ones in which we strive to be more like Him.
We must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope.
The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant, as it were: Alma the Younger, Paul on the road to Damascus, Enos praying far into the night, King Lamoni.
The greatest events of history are those which affect the greatest number for the longest periods.
Fathers, yours is an eternal calling from which you are never released.
