More quotes by David O. McKay
The true purpose of life is the perfection of humanity through individual effort, under the guidance of God's inspiration.
David O. McKay
No other success can compensate for failure in the home. The poorest shack in which love prevails over a united family is of greater value to God and future humanity that any other riches. In such a home God can work miracles and will work miracles.
David O. McKay
Today, as never before, the issue is clearly defined-liberty and freedom of choice, or oppression and subjugation for the individual and for nations.
David O. McKay
If you would be happy, render a kind service, make somebody else happy.
David O. McKay
Trust is greater than love.
David O. McKay

David O. McKay
To be ignorant of one's own ignorance is to be in an unprogressive, uninspired state of existence.
David O. McKay
I will raise my voice as long as God gives me sound or ability, against this Communistic idea that the Government will take care of us all, and everything belongs to the government. It is wrong!
David O. McKay
All men who have moved the world have been men who would stand true to their conscience.
David O. McKay

David O. McKay
As long as the day lasts, let's give it all we got.
David O. McKay
The young man who closes the door behind him, who draws the curtains, and there in silence pleads with God for help, should first pour out his soul in gratitude for health, for friends, for loved ones, for the gospel, for the manifestations of God's existence. He should first count his many blessings and name them one by one.
David O. McKay
A man may act as his conscience dictates so long as he does not infringe upon the rights of others. That is the spirit of true democracy, and all government by the Priesthood should be actuated by that same high motive.
David O. McKay
The seeds of a happy marriage are sown in youth. Happiness does not begin at the altar it begins during the period of youth and courtship.
David O. McKay
One time or another we all face adversity's chilling wind. One man flees from it, and like an unresisting kite falls to the ground. Another yields no retreating inch, and the wind that would destroy him lifts him as readily to the heights. We are not measured by the trials we meet, only by those we overcome.
David O. McKay
If our young people could but glimpse it, it would be the most powerful spiritual motivation of their lives!
David O. McKay
Sincere prayer implies that when we ask for any virtue or blessing, we should work for the blessing and cultivate the virtue.
David O. McKay
