More From Joseph Smith, Jr.

Someone's killed 100,000 people. we're almost going, "well done! you killed 100,000 people? you must get up very early in the morning! i can't even get down the gym. your diary must look odd: 'get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death - lunch - death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower ...' "

Organize your reality according to your strength; organize your reality according to your playfulness; according to your dreams; according to your joy; according to your hopes - and then you can help those who organize their reality according to their fears.

Your children are not your children. they are the sons and daughters of life's longing for itself. they come through you but not from you, and though they are with you, yet they belong not to you. you may give them your love, but not your thoughts. for they have their own thoughts. you may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. you may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. for life goes not backward, nor tarries with yesterday.

Some people ask who they are and expect their feelings to tell them. but feelings are flickering flames that fade after every fitful stimulus. some people ask who they are and expect their achievements to tell them. but the things we accomplish always leave a core of character unrevealed. some people ask who they are and expect visions of their ideal self to tell them. but our visions can only tell us what we want to be, not what we are

For us christians, love of neighbour springs from love of god; and it is its most limpid expression. here one tries to love one's neighbour, but also to allow oneself to be loved by one's neighbour. these two attitudes go together, one cannot be exercised without the other. printed on the letterhead of the missionaries of charity are these words of jesus: "as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me". loving god in our brethren and loving our brethren in god.

A christian is not a person who believes in his head the teachings of the bible. satan believes in his head the teachings of the bible! a christian is a person who has died with christ, whose stiff neck has been broken, whose brazen forehead has been shattered, whose stony heart has been crushed, whose pride has been slain, and whose life is now mastered by jesus christ.

When you have a spirit of excellence, you do the right thing not because somebody is watching or making you do it; you do it because it's the right thing to do.

But since the word of god is complete, serving as the ultimate "sign" needed to lead mankind to christ, miracles are an exception rather than the rule. and when they occur, they are always for his glory.

We live by faith, and faith lives by exercise.

If the christian is a restorationist, a legalist, if he wants everything clear and safe, then he will find nothing. tradition and memory of the past must help us to have the courage to open up new areas to god.
