More quotes by Gordon B. Hinckley
In all this world there is no substitute for personal integrity. It includes honor. It includes performance. It includes keeping one's word. It includes doing what is right regardless of the circumstances
Gordon B. Hinckley
This cause will roll on in majesty and power to fill the earth. Doors now closed to the preaching of the gospel will be opened. The Almighty, if necessary, may have to shake the nations to humble them and cause them to listen to the servants of the living God. Whatever is needed will come to pass.
Gordon B. Hinckley
While there may be thorns and disappointments, while there may be heartache, even heartbreak, there can be peace and comfort and strength from the Lord for those who follow Him.
Gordon B. Hinckley
If every husband and every wife would constantly do whatever might be possible to ensure the comfort and happiness of his or her companion, there would be very little, if any, divorce. Argument would never be heard. Accusations would never be leveled. Angry explosions would not occur. Rather, love and concern would replace abuse and meanness.
Gordon B. Hinckley
For me, the reading of the scriptures is not the pursuit of scholarship. Rather, it is a love affair with the word of the Lord and that of His prophets.
Gordon B. Hinckley
My plea...is a plea to save the children. Too many of them walk with pain and fear, in loneliness and despair. Children need sunlight...They need kindness and refreshment and affection. Every home, regardless of the cost of the house, can provide an environment of love which will be an environment of salvation.
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
All of us have problems. We face them every day. How grateful I am that we have difficult things to wrestle with. They keep us young, they keep us alive, they keep us going, they keep us humble. Be grateful for your problems, and know that somehow there will come a solution. Just do the best you can, but be sure it is the very best.
Gordon B. Hinckley
God has saved you to make your appearance in the last days.
Gordon B. Hinckley
A tattoo is graffiti on the temple of the body.
Gordon B. Hinckley
As you work with your associates to help them with their faith, you will save them and also yourselves.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Limitless is your potential. Magnificent is your future.
Gordon B. Hinckley
The religion of which you are a part is 7 days a week. It isn't just Sunday, it isn't the block plan, it isn't just 3 hours in church, it isn't just the time you spend in Seminary - it's all the time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Gordon B. Hinckley
I am totally in the hands of the Lord.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Do not nag yourself with a sense of failure
Gordon B. Hinckley
Gratitude is the beginning of wisdom. Stated differently, true wisdom cannot be obtained unless it is built on a foundation of true humility and gratitude.
Gordon B. Hinckley
It is good to look to the past to gain appreciation for the present and perspective for the future.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Be believing, be happy, don't get discouraged. Things will work out.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Whatever you do, do well. Be good at it. Stand a little taller. Be a little stronger. Be a little better.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end.
Gordon B. Hinckley
