Boyd K. Packer cytaty

„Kapłaństwo nie ma siły, jaką powinno mieć i nie osiągnie jej dopóki moc kapłaństwa nie zostanie na stałe zakorzeniona w rodzinach.”

“Happiness is inseparably connected with decent, clean behavior.”

“Unwinding a habit that you have allowed to entangle you can be difficult. But the power is in you. Do not despair.”

“No one of us can survive in the world of today, much less what it will become, without personal inspiration.”

“I have a hard time with historians because they idolize the truth. The truth is not uplifting; it destroys. I could tell most of the secretaries in the church office building that they are ugly and fat. That would be the truth, but it would hurt and destroy them. Historians should tell only that part of the truth that is inspiring and uplifting.”

“Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.”

“He who conquers others is strong; he who conquers himself is mighty" - Lao-tsu
One who can control his thoughts has conquered himself.”

“Things we cannot solve, we must survive.”

“The study of doctrine and the teaching of doctrine will change behavior more than the study of behavior will change behavior.”

“Keep the fire of your testimony of the restored gospel and your witness of our Redeemer burning so brightly that our children can warm their hands by the fire of your faith.”

“The choice of life is not between fame and fortune, nor wealth and poverty, but between good and evil.”

“Our lives are made up of thousands of everyday choices. Over the years these little choices will be bundled together and show clearly what we value.”

“There’s an old saying that “no matter how tall your grandpa is, you’ve got to do your own growing,” and that’s the pattern in the Church. We can teach this truth to someone, and they will say, “Well, that’s too fanciful,” and we then say to them: “Do what Joseph Smith did. Go find out for yourself.””

“Fear is the opposite of faith.”
