The presence of the Holy Spirit is the keystone of all our hopes.

The Holy Ghost will testify to our hearts, and the hearts of those gathered around with us, what He would have us do. And it is by keeping His commandments that we can have our hearts knit together as one.

What we want with all our hearts will determine in large degree whether we can claim our right to the companionship of the Holy Ghost, without which there can be no spiritual nourishing.

Only the holy spirit, the spirit of the lord, can transform us.

Every natural object is a conductor of divinity and only by coming into contact with them... may we be filled with the Holy Ghost.

To keep ourselves grounded in the Lord's Church, we can and must train our eyes to recognize the power of the Lord in the service of those He has called. We must be worthy of the companionship of the Holy Ghost. And we need to pray for the Holy Ghost to help us know that men who lead us hold this power.

As we gain experience with the Holy Ghost, we learn that the intensity with which we feel the Spirit's influence is not always the same.

The Holy Ghost will warn us of danger, and it will inspire us to help others in need.

For the Holy Ghost blesses us with optimism and wisdom at times of challenge that we simply cannot muster on our own.

I would say it simply: No one can give that which he doesn't personally possess, which means we cannot transmit the Holy Spirit in an effective way, render the Spirit perceptible, if we ourselves aren't close to the Spirit.
