More quotes by Gordon B. Hinckley

Gordon B. Hinckley
I forewarn you, this will be a rather long talk. I am an old man. I do not know how much longer I will live, and so I want to say what I have to say, while I have the strength to say it. ...Having been warned, some of you will wish to get comfortable. Pleasant dreams.
Gordon B. Hinckley

Woman is God’s supreme creation.
