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.
I never told you I was perfect but there is no error in the revelations which I have taught.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
I combat the errors of ages I meet the violence of mobs I cope with illegal proceedings from executive authority I cut the gordian knot of powers, and I solve mathematical problems of universities, with truth-diamond truth and God is my 'right hand man'.

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.
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.
We are friendly to our country, and when we speak of the flag of our Union, we love it, and we love the rights the Constitution guarantees to every citizen. What did the Prophet Joseph say? When the Constitution shall be tottering we shall be the people to save it from the hand of the foe.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Sometimes the Lord brings us low before he can lift us higher.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Joseph Smith, Jr.
Let us this very day begin anew, and now say, with all our hearts, we will forsake our sins and be righteous.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
This society is not only to relieve the poor, but to save souls.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Mormons can testify whether I am willing to lay down my life for a Mormon If it has been demonstrated that I have been willing to die for a Mormon I am bold to declare before heaven that I am just as ready to die for a Presbyterian, a baptist or any other denomination.
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.
