Quote

The sole meaning of life is to serve humanity.

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want, and after that to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second.

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

The decision to serve a mission will shape the spiritual destiny of the missionary, his or her spouse, and their posterity for generations to come. A desire to serve is a natural outcome of one's conversion, worthiness, and preparation.

The important thing is this: to be able, at any moment, to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.

This is our purpose: to make as meaningful as possible this life that has been bestowed upon us; to live in such a way that we may be proud of ourselves; to act in such a way that some part of us lives on.

What it meant to me: a happy life, of course, companionship, of course. A common objective, I think.

To attain happiness in another world we need only to believe something, while to secure it in this world we must do something.

The most important thing to strive for in life is some kind of personal and professional achievement. Not as a man or a woman, but as a person.

It is the awareness of unfulfilled desires which gives a nation the feeling that it has a mission and a destiny.
