You cannot lift another soul until you are standing on higher ground than he is. You cannot light a fire in another soul unless it is burning in your own soul.

. . . the sin of abortion, or the destruction of unborn children - lies somewhere a close kin to the crime of destroying human life and certainly to be condemned.
Harold B. Lee
Life is fragile, handle with prayer.
Harold B. Lee
The most important of the Lord's work you will ever do will be the work you do within the walls of your own home.
Harold B. Lee
The most important of all the commandments of God is that one that you are having the most difficulty keeping today.
Harold B. Lee
I want to say something to you men. You cannot destroy the appointment of a prophet of God, but you can cut the thread that binds you to the prophet of God, and sink yourselves to hell.
Harold B. Lee
The most important message that I can give to you and to all the world is to keep the commandments of God.
Harold B. Lee
The most effective preaching of the gospel is when it is accompanied by beautiful, appropriate music.
Harold B. Lee
A clean and well-cared for appearance should be maintained. Hair styles should be clean and neat, avoiding extreme styles. Mens' hair should be trimmed above the collar, leaving the ears uncovered. If worn, mustaches should be neatly trimmed. Earrings for men are unacceptable, and beards are not acceptable, except for certified medical reasons.
Harold B. Lee
Don't be down on that you're not up on.
Harold B. Lee
The heaviest burden that one has to bear in this life is the burden of delaying too long before putting the fruit in the Jell-O so it's too firm and the chunks just sit on top.
Harold B. Lee
You are equipped with strong bodies and educated minds. Add to these an unshakable faith in a divine providence and you have the tools by which you may build a successful life. Make each day your masterpiece and live so nobly that you may witness honestly each day: Whatever came to your hands this day, you did it to the best of your ability
Harold B. Lee
We can be the best taught people on the face of the earth but the trouble is we don't live as well as we have been taught.
Harold B. Lee
Every man stamps his value on himself. The price we challenge for ourselves is given us by others. -Man is made great or little by his own will.
Harold B. Lee
Conversion must mean more than just being a 'card-carrying' member of the church with a tithing receipt, a membership card, a temple recommend, etc. It means to overcome the tendencies to criticize and to strive continually to improve inward weaknesses and not merely the outward appearances.
Harold B. Lee
The greatest waste in all the world is living below our potential.
Harold B. Lee
A truth of the gospel is not a truth until you live it. You do not really believe in tithing until you pay it. The word of wisdom to you is not a truth of the gospel until you keep it. The Sabbath day is not a holy day unless you observe it. . . . A friend is not a friend unless you defend him.
Harold B. Lee
And what he ought to see, hear and understand is truth-eternal truth-and then practice it. That is conversion
Harold B. Lee
Testimony is not something you have today, and you are going to have always. A testimony is fragile. It is as hard to hold as a moonbeam. It is something you have to recapture every day of your life.
Harold B. Lee
I only ask to go where the Lord would have me go, and only to receive what the Lord would have me receive, knowing that more important than sight is the witness that one may have by the witness of the Holy Ghost to his soul that things are so and that Jesus is the Christ, a living personage.
Harold B. Lee
I thank the Lord that I may have passed some of the tests, but maybe there will have to be more before I shall have been polished to do all that the Lord would have me do. Sometimes when the veil has been very thin, I have thought that if the struggle had been still greater that maybe then there would have been no veil.
Harold B. Lee
