Lay the burden at the feet of the Savior.
Richard G. Scott
Image
Feelings of bitterness and dissatisfaction feed upon themselves and give place to thoughts and acts of unkindness, criticism, and eventually even hatred. Criticism is often motivated by a desire to rationalize one's own shortcomings and to justify termination of sacred marriage covenants.
Richard G. Scott
Image
The endowment and sealing ordinances of the temple are so gloriously rich in meaning that you will want to allow significant time to receive those ordinances and to ponder their meaning.
Richard G. Scott
Image
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
Image
Make covenants and receive ordinances for yourself. Then steadily and consistently work to provide ordinances in the temple for your own ancestors.
Richard G. Scott
Image
I have never been sorry when I stood for what was right-even against severe criticism.
Richard G. Scott
Image
Recognize the good in others, not their stains.
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
Image
We best serve our Father in Heaven by righteously influencing others and serving them.
Richard G. Scott
Image
Your agency, the right to make choices, is not given so that you can get what you want. This divine gift is provided so that you will choose what your Father in Heaven wants for you. That way He can lead you to become all that He intends you to be.
Richard G. Scott
Image
Try reading the Book of Mormon because you want to, not because you have to. Discover for yourself that it is true.
Richard G. Scott
Image
True friendship is like the asphalt of life. It fills in the potholes and makes the journey smooth.
Richard G. Scott
Image
A quiet impression could be a personal instruction from the Lord. It is personal and private. It comes from the Lord. Why is it important to keep sacred writings private? Because then He will give us more.
Richard G. Scott
Image
If you want to talk to God, pray. If you want him to talk to you, read your scriptures.
Richard G. Scott
Image
In quiet moments when you think about it, you recognize what is critically important in life and what isn't. Be wise and don't let good things crowd out those that are essential.
Richard G. Scott
Image
As you live high standards publicly and privately, and even under great pressure adhere to them, you raise the vision of others.
Richard G. Scott
Image
The seminary programs will help you as a young man or woman to lay a foundation for happiness and success in life.
Richard G. Scott
Image
I see no conflict between science and religion. When you take truth in either one of these realms, science or religion, they match perfectly.
Richard G. Scott
Image
. . . we will never be prompted by the Holy Ghost to do something we cannot do. It may require extraordinary effort and much time, patience, prayer, and obedience, but we can do it.
Richard G. Scott
Image
Something extraordinary is happening. Do you sense it? Truly, as obedience and morality decline in the world, the Lord is sending more exceptional spirits to earth. As a body they excel the average capacity of their forebears. Their potential for personal growth and positive contribution is enormous.
