More quotes by 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 temptation comes your way, name that boastful, deceitful giant “Goliath!” and do with it as David did to the Philistine of Gath.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Church - Come here to learn, go forth to serve.
Gordon B. Hinckley
In matters of honesty, there are no shortcuts no little white lies, or big black lies, only the simple, honest truth spoken in total candor... Being true is different than being honest.
Gordon B. Hinckley
We seldom get into trouble when we speak softly. It is only when we raise our voices that the sparks fly and tiny molehills become great mountains of contention.
Gordon B. Hinckley

Gordon B. Hinckley
Great has been our past, wonderful is our present, and glorious can be our future.
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
The way of the Lord is the way of happiness. ‘Wickedness never was happiness’ [Alma 41:10]. Transgression never was happiness. Sin never was happiness. Disobedience never was happiness. The way of happiness is following the way of the Lord. I believe this with all my heart.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Children don’t need beating. They need love and encouragement. They need fathers to whom they can look with respect rather than fear. Above all, they need example.
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
The family is a creation of God. The way to strengthen the nation is to strengthen the homes of the people.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Stay out of the gutter in your conversation. Foul talk defiles the man who speaks it... Don't swear. Don't profane. Avoid so-called dirty jokes. Stay away from conversation that is sprinkled with foul and filthy words. You will be happier if you do so, and your example will give strength to others.
Gordon B. Hinckley
It’s true, isn’t it? Then what else really matters?
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
God bless you, my beloved sisters, who stand as the queens in your home, that you may be happy with that happiness which comes of the knowledge that you are loved and honored and treasured.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Without preservation and cultivation of the spiritual, your material success will be as ashes in your mouths.
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
