More quotes by Spencer W. Kimball
Make certain decisions only once.
Spencer W. Kimball
We must remember that those mortals we meet in parking lots, offices, elevators, and elsewhere are that portion of mankind God has given us to love and to serve. It will do us little good to speak of the general brotherhood of mankind if we cannot regard those who are all around us as our brothers and sisters.
Spencer W. Kimball
We have always understood that the foundations of the family, as an eternal unit, were laid even before this earth was created! Society without basic family life is without foundation and will disintegrate into nothingness.
Spencer W. Kimball
Every divorce is the result of selfishness on the part of one or both parties to a marriage contract.
Spencer W. Kimball
If we live in such a way that the considerations of eternity press upon us, we will make better decisions.
Spencer W. Kimball
There is never a day in any mans life when repentance is not essential to his well being in eternal progress.
Spencer W. Kimball
Suffering can make saints of people as they learn patience, long-suffering and self-mastery.
Spencer W. Kimball
The more we serve our fellowmen in appropriate ways, the more substance there is to our souls.
Spencer W. Kimball
Only when you lift a burden, God will lift your burden. Divine paradox this! The man who staggers and falls because his burden is too great can lighten that burden by taking on the weight of another's burden. You get by giving, but your part of giving must be given first.
Spencer W. Kimball
Marriage is perhaps the most vital of all the decisions and has the most far-reaching effects...It affects not only the two people involved, but also their families and particularly their children and their children's children down through the many generations
Spencer W. Kimball
Waste is unjustified, and especially the waste of time limited as that commodity is in our days of probation. One must live, not only exist he must do, not merely be he must grow, not just vegetate.
Spencer W. Kimball
Preparedness, when properly pursued, is a way of life, not a sudden, spectacular program. We could refer to all the components of personal and family preparedness, not in relation to holocaust or disaster, but in cultivating a life-style that is on a day-to-day basis its own reward.
Spencer W. Kimball
The only way we can keep our freedom is to work at it. Not some of us. All of us. Not some of the time, but all of the time. So if you value your citizenship and you want to keep it for yourself and your children and their children, give it your faith, your belief, and give it your active support in civic affairs.
Spencer W. Kimball
They who reach down into the depths of life where, in the stillness, the voice of God is heard, have the stabilizing power which carries them poised and serene through the hurricane of difficulties.
Spencer W. Kimball
I have learned that it is by serving that we learn how to serve. When we engaged in the service of our fellowmen, not only do our deeds assist them but we put our own problems in fresher perspective. When we concern ourselves more with others, there is less time to be concerned with ourselves
Spencer W. Kimball
Modern idols or false gods can take such forms as clothes, homes, businesses, machines, automobiles, pleasure boats, and numerous other material deflectors.
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
Racial prejudice is of ignorance. There is no place for it.
Spencer W. Kimball
Dream beautiful dreams and then work to make those dreams come true.
Spencer W. Kimball
Do not pray to marry the one that you love, but to love the one that you marry.
Spencer W. Kimball
