More quotes by Brigham Young
I have no wife whom I love so well that I would not put a javelin through her heart, and I would do it with clean hands.
Brigham Young
When all the other children of Adam have had the privilege of receiving the Priesthood, and of coming into the kingdom of God, and of being redeemed from the four quarters of the earth, and HAVE RECEIVED THEIR RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD, then it will be time enough to remove the curse from Cain and his posterity.
Brigham Young
In the days of Joseph [Smith] it was considered a great privilege to be permitted to speak to a member of Congress, but twenty-six years will not pass away before the Elders of this Church will be as much thought of as the kings on their thrones.
Brigham Young
I love the Constitution and government of this land, but I hate the damned rascals that administer the government.
Brigham Young
When Joseph received the revelation that we have in our possession concerning the [baptism of the] dead, the subject was opened to him, not in full but in part... Then women were baptized for men and men for women, & c.
Brigham Young
He is our Father - the Father of our Spirits, and was once a man in mortal flesh as we are, and is now an exalted being.
Brigham Young
If we lack confidence in each other, and be jealous of each other, our peace will be destroyed. If we cultivate the principles of unshaken confidence in each other, our joy will be full.
Brigham Young
Why should we worry about what others think of us, do we have more confidence in their opinions than we do our own?
Brigham Young
It is impossible to unite Christ and Baal -- their spirits cannot unite, their objects and purposes are entirely different the one leads to eternal life and exaltation, the other to death and final destruction.
Brigham Young
No matter what your circumstances are, whether you are in prosperity or in adversity, you can learn from every person, transaction, and circumstance around you.
Brigham Young
Love the giver more than the gift.
Brigham Young
A man who did not have but one wife in the Resurrection that woman will not be his but be taken from him & given to another.
Brigham Young
The Christian world, I discovered, was like the captain and crew of a vessel on the ocean without a compass, and tossed to and fro whithersoever the wind listed to blow them. When the light came to me, I saw that all the so-called Christian world was grovelling in darkness
Brigham Young
If you want to know what to do with a thief that you may find stealing, I say kill him on the spot, and never suffer him to commit another iniquity. I will prove by my works whether I can mete out justice to such persons, or not. I would consider it just as much my duty to do that, as to baptize a man for the remission of his sins.
Brigham Young
If you wish to get rich, save what you get. A fool can earn money but it takes a wise man to save and dispose of it to his own advantage.
Brigham Young
I honor and revere the name of Joseph Smith. I delight to hear it I love it. I love his doctrine. I feel like shouting Hallelujah, all the time, when I think that I ever knew Joseph Smith, the Prophet whom the Lord raised up. I am bold to say that, Jesus Christ excepted, no better man ever lived or does live upon this earth. I am his witness.
Brigham Young
Pray as if all depended on God and work as if all depended upon you.
Brigham Young
Let us have compassion upon each other, and let the strong tenderly nurse the weak into strength, and let those who can see guide the blind until they can see the way for themselves.
Brigham Young
We must not love the world, nor the things of the world, until the world is sanctified and prepared to be presented to the Father with the Saints upon it then they will inhabit it for ever and ever.
Brigham Young
Don't try to tear down other people's religion about their ears, Build up your own perfect structure of truth, and invite your listeners to enter in and enjoy it's glories.
Brigham Young
