Gordon B. Hinckley

Gordon B. Hinckley
Forget yourself and go to work.
Gordon B. Hinckley
We live in a society that feeds on criticism. It is so easy to find fault, and to resist doing so requires much discipline.
Gordon B. Hinckley

Gordon B. Hinckley
The home is under siege. So many families are being destroyed...If anyone can change the dismal situation into which we are sliding, it is you.

Gordon B. Hinckley
