Thomas S. Monson

Along your pathway of life you will observe that you are not the only traveler. There are others who need your help. There are feet to steady, hands to grasp, minds to encourage, hearts to inspire, and souls to save.

Ideals are like the stars - you can't touch them with your hands, but by following them you reach your destination.

Any excuse, no matter how valid, only weakens the character.

May I share with you a formula that in my judgment will help you and help me to journey well through mortality... First, fill your mind with truth; second, fill your life with service; and third, fill your heart with love.

The good you have done, the kind words you have spoken, the love you have shown to others, can never be fully measured.

When faith replaces doubt, when selfless service eliminates selfish striving, the power of God brings to pass His purposes.
