Spencer W. Kimball
There is no doubt that the life one leads, and the thoughts one thinks are registered plainly in his face.
Spencer W. Kimball
Being human, we would expel from our lives physical pain and mental anguish and assure ourselves of continual ease and comfort, but if we were to close the doors upon sorrow and distress, we might be excluding our greatest friends and benefactors. Suffering can make saints of people as they learn patience, long-suffering, and self-mastery.
Spencer W. Kimball
I am convinced that each of us, at some time in our lives, must discover the scriptures for ourselves—and not just discover them once, but rediscover them again and again.
Spencer W. Kimball

Spencer W. Kimball
Each of us has more opportunities to do good and to be good than we ever use.
Spencer W. Kimball
Do not make small goals because they do not have the magic to stir men's souls.
Spencer W. Kimball
Get a notebook, my young folks, a journal that will last through all time, and maybe the angels may quote from it for eternity. Begin today and write in it your goings and comings, your deepest thoughts, your achievements and your failures, your associations and your triumphs, your impressions and your testimonies.
Spencer W. Kimball
To be a righteous woman during the winding up scenes on this earth, before the second coming of our Savior, is an especially noble calling... She has been placed here to help to enrich, to protect, and to guard the home--which is society's basic and most noble institution.
Spencer W. Kimball
In true marriage there must be a union of minds as well as of hearts. Emotions must not wholly determine decisions, but the mind and the heart, strengthened by fasting and prayer and serious consideration, will give one a maximum chance of marital happiness.
Spencer W. Kimball
Some of the greatest sermons that have ever been preached were preached by the singing of a song.
Spencer W. Kimball
What are we to fear when the Lord is with us? Can we not take the Lord at his word and exercise a particle of faith in him?
Spencer W. Kimball
As we give, we find that sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven, and in the end, we learn that it was no sacrifice at all.
Spencer W. Kimball
