Dallin H. Oaks
Let us remember that desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions. In addition, it is our actions and our desires that cause us to become something, whether a true friend, a gifted teacher, or one who has qualified for eternal life.
Dallin H. Oaks
We have to forego some good things in order to choose others that are better or best because they develop faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and strengthen our families.

Dallin H. Oaks
A good marriage does not require a perfect man or a perfect woman. It only requires a man and a woman committed to strive together toward perfection.
Dallin H. Oaks
We should seek after spiritual gifts. They can lead us to God. They can shield us from the power of the adversary. They can compensate for our inadequacies and repair our imperfections.
Dallin H. Oaks
If we choose the wrong road, we choose the wrong destination.
Dallin H. Oaks
I am unpersuaded that relative poverty and hard work are greater adversities than relative affluence and free time.
Dallin H. Oaks
Citizens ... should be practitioners of civic virtue in their conduct toward government. They should be ever willing to fulfill the duties of citizenship. This includes compulsory duties like military service and the numerous voluntary actions they must take if they are to preserve the principle of limited government through citizen self-reliance.
Dallin H. Oaks
I just didn’t spend enough time with my job.
Dallin H. Oaks
Most angelic communications are felt or heard rather than seen.
Dallin H. Oaks
We are cast as combatants in the war between truth and error. There is no middle ground. We must stand up for truth, even while we practice tolerance and respect for beliefs and ideas different from our own and for the people who hold them.
Dallin H. Oaks
The coup de grace which ends the patient's life altogether is quite equivalent to the drastic modification in the institution of marriage that would be brought on by same-gender marriage.
