audie Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 This quote fits perfectly under gratitude, no kidding. "Gratitude is a mark of a noble soul and a refined character. We like to be around those who are grateful. They tend to brighten all around them. They make others feel better about themselves. They tend to be more humble, more joyful, more likable." (Joseph B. Wirthlin, "Live in Thanksgiving Daily," Ensign, Sept. 2001,8) Quote

Josie Posted November 16, 2005 Report Posted November 16, 2005 ldsgurl, go to www.lds.org. Then on the left side of the page, click on library. Put in each subject and it will bring up talks by GAs and you can pick your quotes from those talks. Quote

LionHeart Posted December 8, 2005 Report Posted December 8, 2005 Remeber the sabbath day to keep it holy. (ten commandments) Quote
LionHeart Posted December 8, 2005 Report Posted December 8, 2005 Okay, Okay, here's another one that might be a little more helpful: We take the sacred writings into our hands, and admit that they were given by direct inspiration for the good of man. We believe that God condescended to speak from the heavens and declare His will concerning the human family, to give them just and holy laws, to regulate their conduct, and guide them in a direct way, that in due time He might take them to Himself, and make them joint heirs with His Son. But when this fact is admitted, that the immediate will of Heaven is contained in the Scriptures, are we not bound as rational creatures to live in accordance to all it's precepts? Joseph Smith Junior. Quote
ldsgurl_2002 Posted December 8, 2005 Author Report Posted December 8, 2005 Thanks lionheart!!! ...but what topic would that go under?? Scripture reading? Families? Quote
Lindy Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 I love John Bytheway...and heres a quote from him I like..... "It is better to be respected than it is to be popular. Popularity ends on Yearbook Day, but respect lasts forever." -- John Bytheway But on the lighter side: quips I found from some sites: "Why did the Laminites have sore Knees? " Too many Knee Fights. (Nephites) "If you're not LDS, you belong to a non-prophet organization." --Brad Panike "You might be a Mormon if you have a coke-a-cola bottle in a brown bag." --Brian Burningham Quote
ldsgurl_2002 Posted December 9, 2005 Author Report Posted December 9, 2005 I love John Bytheway too!! we watched his book of mormon heroes talk in seminary..he is so hilarious..great speaker...Thanks!! those are hilarious! Quote
LionHeart Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 That quote would go under scripture reading. It basically tells us that the will of God is contained in the scriptures, so reading them is a good way to find out what God's will is. Quote

stellati Posted December 11, 2005 Report Posted December 11, 2005 Words of Wisom: In essence this is telling us to not sweat the small stuff, or don't freak out over things that can be resolved. "Crisis + Time = Humor." Believe me I know. Like the time the cat got in the dryer and we turned it on not knowing he was there. All we heard was a little yip then tha-thunk, tha-thunk, tha-thunk. Yeah, then we realized what happened and pulled him out. He was warm, and staticky. We freaked out about it at the time but now we can laugh about it. Another gooder is "Faith cannot be exercised while in doubt." and "Faults and Failings and the superficiality of mere physical attractions are as nothing compared with the genuiness of good character that endures and grows more beautiful with years." I think those are both by Sheri Dew. I know the first one is but the second one, I'm not so sure. Good luck!!! Quote
