Richard G. Scott
Every time you make the right choice in the face of potential criticism you build strength that makes choosing the right easier the next time. When you make it clear that you will not vary from your standards, you will be led to individuals like yourself and the criticism from others will become less intense.
Richard G. Scott
It is through the repeated process of feeling impressions, recording them, and obeying them that one learns to depend on the direction of the Spirit more than on communication through the other five senses.
Richard G. Scott

Richard G. Scott
Sadness, disappointment, and severe challenges are events in life, not life itself. I do not minimize how hard some of these events are. They can extend over a long period of time, but they should not be allowed to become the confining center of everything you do.
Richard G. Scott
Lay the burden at the feet of the Savior.
Richard G. Scott
Learning, pondering, searching, and memorizing scriptures is like filling a filing cabinet with friends, values, and truths that can be called upon anytime, anywhere in the world.
Richard G. Scott
Stay on the Lord's side, and you will win every time.
Richard G. Scott
To reach a goal you have never before attained, you must do things you have never before done.
Richard G. Scott
If you choose to concentrate on the dark side, this is what you will see.
Richard G. Scott
Yielding to emotions such as anger or hurt or defensiveness will drive away the Holy Ghost.
Richard G. Scott
