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
It isn't the Lord who withholds himself from us. It is we who withhold ourselves from him because of our failure to keep his commandments.

There are many who profess to be religious and speak of themselves as Christians, and, according to one such, as accepting the scriptures only as sources of inspiration and moral truth, and then ask in their smugness: Do the revelations of God give us a handrail to the kingdom of God, as the Lord's messenger told Lehi, or merely a compass?
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
The most important of all the commandments of God is that one that you are having the most difficulty keeping today.
Harold B. Lee
For by doing these things the gates of hell shall not prevail against you yea, and the Lord God will disperse the powers of darkness from before you, and cause the heavens to shake for your good, and his name's glory

Don't get so busy that you don't have time to meditate. Take the time.... Christ may be nearer than we have knowledge. 'I am in your midst, but you do not see me.'
Harold B. Lee
I have faith in the future of this promised land of America and in its institutions of representative government, but more than that, I have faith in you, the youth of America, to build even more securely on the foundations laid by the faith and devotion of your pioneer fathers.
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
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
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
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
Missionary work is but home teaching to those who are not now members of the Church, and home teaching is nothing more or less than missionary work to Church members
Harold B. Lee
Never is the gospel of Jesus Christ more beautiful than in times of intense need, or in times of a severe storm within us as individuals, or in times of confusion and turmoil.
Harold B. Lee
Never permit yourself to indulge in cheap flattery, which often times means to merely satisfy the individuals vanity and sometimes to ingratiate the flatter into the good graces of the flattered.
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
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.
Harold B. Lee
