More quotes by Spencer W. Kimball
Humility is the beginning virtue of all exaltation.
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
Homosexuality is an ugly sin, repugnant to those who find no temptation in it, as well as to many past offenders who are seeking a way out of its clutches. All such deviations from normal, proper heterosexual relationships are not merely unnatural but wrong in the sight of God.
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
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
Preparedness, when properly pursued, is a way of life, not a sudden, spectacular program.
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
Time cannot be recycled. When a moment has gone, it is really gone. Wise time management is really wise management of ourselves.
Spencer W. Kimball
I am not afraid of death. What I am afraid of is that I will meet the Saviour and He will say, 'You could have done better'
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
My life is like my shoes, worn out by service.
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 more we are guided by eternal considerations in our conduct, the better we will manage our mortality.
Spencer W. Kimball
People must be changed...goodness cannot be legislated.
Spencer W. Kimball
There isn't anything else more important than taking the gospel to the world.
Spencer W. Kimball
Young men do not usually become inactive in the Church because they are given too many significant things to do.
Spencer W. Kimball
Man must live, not only exist he must do, not merely be he must grow, not just vegetate.
Spencer W. Kimball
Do not pray to marry the one that you love, but to love the one that you marry.
Spencer W. Kimball
If you are going to err, err on the side of mercy.
Spencer W. Kimball
Your own private journal should record the way you face up to challenges that beset you. Do not suppose life changes so much that your experiences will not be interesting to your posterity. Experiences of work, relations with people, and an awareness of the rightness and wrongness of actions will always be relevant.
Spencer W. Kimball
