Thinking Quotes

Our being edified at conference depends on us. It becomes necessary that we prepare our hearts to receive and profit by the suggestions that may be made by the speakers during the progress of the conference, which may be prompted by the Spirit of the Lord.

When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.

Whenever one feasts, one thinks of one's brother twice as much as before,
There where my brother far away is ascending,
The dogwood is flowering, and a man is missed.
