More quotes by Joseph Smith, Jr.
I never feel to force my doctrine upon any person I rejoice to see prejudice give way to truth, and the traditions of men dispersed by the pure principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
You don't know me you never knew my heart. No man knows my history. I cannot tell it: I shall never undertake it. I don't blame any one for not believing my history. If I had not experienced what I have, I would not have believed it myself.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
It is my meditation all the day, and more than my meat and drink, to know how I shall make the Saints of God comprehend the visions that roll like an overflowing surge before my mind.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Joseph Smith, Jr.
Don't be limited in your views with regard to your neighbor's virtue...You must enlarge your soul towards each other.

If there is trouble in the country, neither I nor my people made it, and all that we have ever done, after much endurance on our part, is to maintain and uphold the constitution and institutions of our country, and to protect an injured, innocent, and persecuted people against misrule and mob violence.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Joseph Smith, Jr.
Sectarian priests cry out concerning me, and ask, Why is it this babbler gains so many followers, and retains them? I answer, It is because I possess the principle of love. All I can offer the world is a good heart and a good hand.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
You might as well baptize a bag of sand as a man, if not done in view of the remission of sins and getting of the Holy Ghost. Baptism by water is but half a baptism, and is good for nothing without the other half-that is, baptism of the Holy Ghost.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
If you will stay with the majority of the Twelve Apostles, and the records of the Church, you will never be led astray.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
One of the grand fundamental principles of Mormonism is to receive truth, let it come from whence it may.
