More quotes by Richard G. Scott
What I am trying to teach is that when we keep the temple covenants we have made and when we live righteously in order to maintain the blessings promised by those ordinances, then come what may, we have no reason to worry or to feel despondent.
Richard G. Scott
Freedom requires no effort to enjoy but requires heroic efforts to preserve.
Richard G. Scott
No one intends to make serious mistakes. They come when you compromise your standards to be more accepted by others. You be the strong one. You be the leader. Choose good friends and resist peer pressure together.
Richard G. Scott
Your peace of mind, your assurance of answers to vexing problems, your ultimate joy depend upon your trust in Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.
Richard G. Scott
Chose to converse with your Father in Heaven often. Make time every day to share your thoughts and feelings with Him.
Richard G. Scott

Richard G. Scott
There are powerful emotions that bring two people together in wonderful harmony in a marriage. Satan knows this, and would tempt you to try these emotions outside of marriage. Do not stir emotions meant to be used only in marriage.
Richard G. Scott
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
No enduring improvement can occur without righteous exercise of agency. Do not attempt to override agency. The Lord himself would not do that. Forced obedience yields no blessings.
Richard G. Scott
When revelation comes write it down.
Richard G. Scott
If we are not careful, we will convey the message that investigators have to be perfect. Not true!
Richard G. Scott
We become what we want to be by consistently being what we want to become each day.
Richard G. Scott
Yielding to emotions such as anger or hurt or defensiveness will drive away the Holy Ghost.
Richard G. Scott
Don't look for a life virtually free from discomfort, pain, pressure, challenge, or grief, for those are the tools a loving Father uses to stimulate our personal growth and understanding.
Richard G. Scott
Can you hang in there with your investigators when things get going tough? Don't give up on investigators because they have a little weakness. Work with them until the Holy Ghost tells you not to.
Richard G. Scott
. . . 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
Worthy character is best forged from a life of consistent, correct choices centered in the teachings of the Master.
