More quotes by Gordon B. Hinckley
In all we do we must cultivate faith. Increased faith is the touchstone to improved church performance.
Gordon B. Hinckley
If you serve a mission faithfully and well, you will be a better husband, you will be a better father, you will be a better student, a better worker in your chosen vocation. Love is of the essence of this missionary work. Selflessness is of its very nature. Self-discipline is its requirement. Prayer opens its reservoir of power.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Who can calculate the wounds inflicted, their depth and pain, by harsh and mean words spoken in anger? How pitiful a sight is a man who is strong in many ways but who loses all control of himself when some little thing, usually of no significant consequence, disturbs his equanimity.
Gordon B. Hinckley
. . . as people serve, they grow in capacity. The time and effort is not a sacrifice because there is returned more than is given.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Gratitude is the beginning of civility, of decency and goodness, of a recognition that we cannot afford to be arrogant. We should walk with the knowledge that we will need help every step of the way.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Anger is the mother of a whole brood of evil actions. Divorce too often is the bitter fruit of anger.
Gordon B. Hinckley

Gordon B. Hinckley
Do not nag yourself with a sense of failure
Gordon B. Hinckley
There is rampant among us a spirit of criticism. Men and women who carry heavy responsibility do not need criticism, they need encouragement.
Gordon B. Hinckley
When an individual is motivated by great and powerful convictions of truth, then he disciplines himself, not because of the demands of the church, but because of the knowledge within his heart
Gordon B. Hinckley
There are few things more pathetic than those who have lost their curiosity and sense of adventure, and who no longer care to learn.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Let us never forget to pray. God lives. He is near. He is real.
Gordon B. Hinckley
There is no strength that is greater than the strength of virtue. There is no other nobility equal to the nobility of virtue. There is no quality so becoming, no attire so attractive.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Marriage in its truest sense, is a partnership of equals, with neither exercising dominion over the other, but, rather, with each encouraging and assisting the other in whatever responsibilities and aspirations he or she might have.
Gordon B. Hinckley
You can determine the kind of life you will have in your 30s and 40s by what you do in your teens.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Gratitude creates the most wonderful feeling. It can resolve disputes. It can strengthen friendships. And it makes us better men and women.
Gordon B. Hinckley
I would like to suggest to you that you 'grab life by the horns' and do not let life grab you by the horns. You take control of your lives. Do not let life control you. Take charge. Rise to the divinity that is within you.
Gordon B. Hinckley
By and large, I have come to see that if we complain about life, it is because we are thinking only of ourselves.
Gordon B. Hinckley
If we are worried about the future, then we must look today at the upbringing of children.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Generally speaking, the most miserable people I know are those who are obsessed with themselves the happiest people I know are those who lose themselves in the service of others...By and large, I have come to see that if we complain about life, it is because we are thinking only of ourselves.
Gordon B. Hinckley
