More quotes by Heber J. Grant
Satan...[plans] to destroy liberty and freedom ~ economic, political, and religious, and to set up in place thereof the greatest, most widespread, and most complete tyranny that has ever oppressed men. He is working under such perfect disguise that many do not recognize either him or his methods.
Heber J. Grant
No man can teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ under the inspiration of the living God and with power from on high unless he is living it.
Heber J. Grant
We do appeal to all men and women, realizing the responsibility resting upon them, to seek God our heavenly Father to guide them politically as well as religiously, and to stand for right and for those things that are for the good of this nation.
Heber J. Grant
I am free to confess that I am disappointed with the Yosemite valley. It seems only about one-half as grand as the American Fork canyon.
Heber J. Grant
The Lord does not need your tithing, as far as He is concerned, but you need it for your growth, spiritually and temporally, that the windows of heaven may be opened and the Spirit of the living God given to you.
Heber J. Grant
I consider it one of the greatest accomplishments of my life that I have learned to sing.
Heber J. Grant
Every individual can improve from day to day, from year to year, and have greater capacity to do things as the years come and the years go.
Heber J. Grant
He can who thinks he can.
Heber J. Grant
The singing of the songs of Zion, though imperfectly, with the inspiration of God, will touch the hearts of the honest more effectively than if sung well without the Spirit of God.
Heber J. Grant
The minute a man stops supplicating God for His Spirit and direction, just so soon he starts out to become a stranger to Him and His works. When men stop praying for God's Spirit, they place confidence in their own unaided reason, and they gradually lose the Spirit of God.
Heber J. Grant
I have no animosity against any living soul.
Heber J. Grant
I do not believe we accomplish very much in life unless we are enthusiastic, unless we are in earnest, and unless we practice what we preach.
Heber J. Grant
If we are striving, if we are working, if we are trying, to the best of our ability, to improve day by day, then we are in the line of our duty.
Heber J. Grant
No obstacles are insurmountable when God commands and we obey.
Heber J. Grant
Teaching by precept, without example, is mighty poor teaching.
Heber J. Grant
In times of temptation, of sorrow, of peace and of blessing, let us pray always, both alone and with our families.
Heber J. Grant
No power on earth, no power beneath the earth, will ever prevent you or me or any Latter-day Saint from being saved, except ourselves
Heber J. Grant
There is no true Latter-day Saint who would not rather bury a son or a daughter than to have him or her lose his or her chastity - realizing that chastity is of more value than anything else in all the world.
Heber J. Grant
If we are faithful in keeping the commandments of God His promises will be fulfilled to the very letter. . . . The trouble is, the adversary of men's souls blinds their minds. He throws dust, so to speak, in their eyes, and they are blinded with the things of this world.
Heber J. Grant
If a man has the assurance within his own heart that he is worthy, and that he is laboring to the best of his ability to do good, he can stand up under the condemnation, the criticism and the censure of those by whom he is surrounded.
Heber J. Grant
