“Here in our land and in other lands many have been drifting toward a religion which says much about rights but little about duties; a religion which thinks only about humanity and little about God; which lays great stress on service but little stress on faith; which puts all the emphasis on man and his power and very little on God and His power.” -William Thomas Manning

“The happiest sweetest tenderest homes are not those where there has been no sorrow but those which have been overshadowed with grief and where Christs comfort was accepted. The very memory of the sorrow is a gentle benediction that broods ever over the household like the silence that comes after prayer. There is a blessing sent from God in every burden of sorrow.” -James Russell Miller

“We speak much of tolerance as if it were the great virtue but it does not go far enough. Who wants to be tolerated just to be put up with? Jesus did not say, “Tolerate your neighbor,” but instead He said, “Love your neighbors.” Each person wants to be loved and appreciated and enjoyed for what he is and for what he can do for his friends and his neighbors.” -Caroline Eyring Miner
