More quotes by 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
Don't be down on that you're not up on.

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.

Wouldn't it be a great thing if all who are well schooled in secular learning could hold fast to the iron rod, or the word of God, which could lead them, through faith, to an understanding, rather than to have them stray away into strange paths of man-made theories and be plunged into the murky waters of disbelief and apostasy?
Harold B. Lee
In order for good to blossom it must be cultivated and exercised by constant practice, and to be truly righteous there is required a daily pruning of the evil growth of our characters by a daily repen- tance from sin.
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
The Lord is going to keep His people informed if they will listen.
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
The most effective preaching of the gospel is when it is accompanied by beautiful, appropriate music.

The greatest waste in all the world is living below our potential.
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
I earnestly urge all our people to unite under the true banner of the Master, to teach the gospel of Jesus Christ so powerfully that no truly converted person could ever be aligned with these controversial concepts and procedures contrary to the Lord's plan of salvation.
Harold B. Lee
And what he ought to see, hear and understand is truth-eternal truth-and then practice it. That is conversion
