More quotes by 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.

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.
