Joseph Smith, Jr.
Truth is Mormonism. God is the author of it.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
The heads (Plural) of the Gods appointed one God for us and when you take that view of the subject, it sets one free to see all the beauty, holiness and perfection of the Gods.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
God sees the secret springs of human action, and knows the hearts of all living.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
The fundamental principles of our religion are the testimony of the Apostles and Prophets, concerning Jesus Christ, that He died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven and all other things which pertain to our religion are only appendages to it.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
I am the greatest advocate of the Constitution of the United States there is on the earth. In my feelings I am always ready to die for the protection of the weak and oppressed in their just rights. The only fault I find with the Constitution is, it is not broad enough to cover the whole ground.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Where has the genius of the pedistal [sic] of the laws and constitution of our boasted country fled?
Joseph Smith, Jr.
No man knows my history.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Whatever happens, the Lord is in it.
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.
When persons manifest the least kindness and love to me, O what power it has over my mind, while the opposite course has a tendency to harrow up all the harsh feelings and depress the human mind.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
I told them I was but a man, and they must not expect me to be perfect if they expected perfection from me, I should expect it from them but if they would bear with my infirmities and the infirmities of the brethren, I would likewise bear with their infirmities.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
What is the damnation of hell? To go with that society who have not obeyed His commands.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Salvation cannot come without revelation. Men of the present time testify of heaven and hell, and have never seen either and I will say that no man knows these things without this.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
If men do not comprehend the character of God, they do not comprehend themselves.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
The Constitution should contain a provision that every officer of the Government who should neglect or refuse to extend the protection guaranteed in the Constitution should be subject to capital punishment and then the president of the United States would not say, Your cause is just, but I can do nothing for you.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
We say that God is true that the Constitution of the United States is true that the Bible is true and that the Book of Mormon is true, and that Christ is true
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Blessed be the memory of those few brethren who contended so strenuously for their constitutional rights and religious freedom, against such an overwhelming force of desperadoes!
Joseph Smith, Jr.
