More quotes by Spencer W. Kimball
The burning bushes, the smoking mountains, . . . the Cumorahs, and the Kirtlands were realities but they were the exceptions. . . . Always expecting the spectacular, many will miss entirely the constant flow of revealed communication.
Spencer W. Kimball
No true Latter-Day Saint, while physically or emotionally able will voluntarily shift the burden of his own or his family's well-being to someone else. So long as he can, under the inspiration of the Lord and with his own labors, he will supply himself and his family with the spiritual and temporal necessities of life.
Spencer W. Kimball
Any excuse for non-performance, no matter how valid, weakens character.
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
If joy and peace and rewards were instantaneously given the doer of good, there would be no evil-all would do good but not because of the rightness of doing good. There would be no test of strength, no development of character, no growth of powers, no free agency, only satanic controls.
Spencer W. Kimball
The leaven of true leadership cannot lift others unless we are with and serve those to be led.
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
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
We learn to do by doing.
Spencer W. Kimball
Dream beautiful dreams and then work to make those dreams come true.
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
Man must live, not only exist he must do, not merely be he must grow, not just vegetate.
Spencer W. Kimball
We should be involved in quiet acts of selfless service.
Spencer W. Kimball
The essence of the miracle of forgiveness is that it brings peace to the previously anxious, restless, frustrated, perhaps tormented soul.
Spencer W. Kimball
If men are really humble, they will realize that they discover, but do not create, truth.
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.
