More quotes by Thomas S. Monson
So much in life depends on our attitude. The way we choose to see things and respond to others makes all the difference.
Thomas S. Monson
Home should be a haven of love. Honor, courtesy, and respect symbolize love and characterize the righteous family.
Thomas S. Monson
The hand of a bride becomes the hand of a mother. Ever so gently she cares for her precious child. Bathing, dressing, feeding, comforting-there is no hand like mother's. Nor does its tender care diminish through the years.
Thomas S. Monson
You will never be able to measure your influence for good.
Thomas S. Monson
As the Christmas season envelops us with all its glory, may we, as did the Wise Men, seek a bright, particular star to guide us in our celebration of the Savior’s birth.
Thomas S. Monson
This is my philosophy on all life, not just when it comes to love. All the best things are terrifying, but that's why they're the best things. Nothing worth having comes easy. You have to be afraid to want it, afraid to lose it, afraid to try. If you feel that, then you know you're on to a winner.
Thomas S. Monson
Our most significant opportunities will be found in times of greatest difficulty.
Thomas S. Monson
Don't save something for a special occasion. Every day of your life is a special occasion.
Thomas S. Monson
We forget how the Greeks and Romans prevailed magnificently in a barbaric world and how that triumph ended-how a slackness and softness finally overcame them to their ruin. In the end, more than they wanted freedom, they wanted security and a comfortable life and they lost all-comfort and security and freedom.
Thomas S. Monson
All of us remember the home of our childhood. Interestingly, our thoughts do not dwell on whether the house was large or small, the neighborhood fashionable or downtrodden. Rather, we delight in the experiences we shared as a family. The home is the laboratory of our lives, and what we learn there largely determines what we do when we leave there.
Thomas S. Monson
We can’t direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. For maximum happiness, peace, and contentment, may we choose a positive attitude.
Thomas S. Monson
Few see beyond the outward appearance And recognize the true worth of a human soul. When they do, miracles occur.
Thomas S. Monson
Decisions determine destiny.
Thomas S. Monson
Any excuse, no matter how valid, only weakens the character.
Thomas S. Monson
As a teenage daughter hears her sweet mother plead unto the Lord that her daughter will be inspired in the selection of her companions, that she will prepare herself for a temple marriage, don't you believe that such a daughter will seek to honor this humble, pleading petition of her mother, whom she so dearly loves?
Thomas S. Monson
Avoid pornography at all costs!
Thomas S. Monson
You have a heritage honor it. You have posses a testimony share it. You will face temptations withstand it. You know the truth live it.
Thomas S. Monson
When we deal in generalities, we shall never succeed. When we deal in specifics, we shall rarely have a failure. When performance is measured, performance improves. When performance is measured and reported, the rate of performance accelerates.
Thomas S. Monson
LOVE should be the very heart of FAMILY life.
Thomas S. Monson
Amidst the confusion of the times, the conflicts of conscience, and the turmoil of daily living, an abiding faith becomes an anchor to our lives.
Thomas S. Monson
