More quotes by Neal A. Maxwell
The new in us is bound to notice the old that remains.
Neal A. Maxwell
God's extraordinary work is most often done by ordinary people in the seeming obscurity of a home and family.
Neal A. Maxwell
The Lord doesn't ask about your ability, only your availability and, if you prove your dependability, the Lord will increase your capability.
Neal A. Maxwell
Unproductive worry - like Parkinson's proverbial law - tends to expand to fill the time available.
Neal A. Maxwell
We can hold to the iron rod even if others slip away and a few end up mocking us from the great and spacious building.
Neal A. Maxwell
There will be many fine and wonderful men and women of all races and creeds-and of no religious creeds at all-who will lead decent and useful lives.
Neal A. Maxwell
Time is clearly not our natural dimension. Thus it is that we are never really at home in time. Alternately, we find ourselves wishing to hasten the passage of time or to hold back the dawn. We can do neither, of course, but whereas the fish is at home in water, we are clearly not at home in time--because we belong to eternity.
Neal A. Maxwell
The more seriously we work on our own imperfections, the less we are judgemental of the imperfections of others.
Neal A. Maxwell
We are often not only to slow to get on our knees, but to quick to rise from them.
Neal A. Maxwell
Perfect love is perfectly patient.
Neal A. Maxwell
Progress is measured by milestones. What many good people lack are markers that might tell them how they are actually doing. Goals can become a ritual or a fetish, but in the right measure they can give us some much needed reference points. No wonder some seem discouraged! Minus such milestones, we often feel minus in our lives
Neal A. Maxwell
Obviously, family values mirror our personal priorities. Given the gravity of current conditions, would parents be willing to give up just one outside thing, giving that time and talent instead to the family.
Neal A. Maxwell
Selfishness is much more than an ordinary problem because it activates all the cardinal sins! It is the detonator in the breaking of the Ten Commandments.
Neal A. Maxwell
It is extremely important for you to believe in yourselves, not only for what you are now, but for what you have the power to become.
Neal A. Maxwell
We, more than others, should carry jumper and tow cables not only in our cars, but also in our hearts, by which means we can send the needed boost or charge of encouragement or the added momentum to mortal neighbors.
Neal A. Maxwell
Ultimate hope and daily grumpiness are not reconcilable.
Neal A. Maxwell
Mother lode of learning.
Neal A. Maxwell
Those who do too much for their children will soon find they can do nothing with their children. So many children have been so much done for they are almost done in.
Neal A. Maxwell
God will facilitate, but He will not force.
Neal A. Maxwell
Never give up what you want most for what you want today.
Neal A. Maxwell
