David O. McKay Life Quotations

Your thoughts are the architects of your destiny.

The home is the first and most effective place to learn the lessons of life: truth, honor, virtue, self control, the value of education, honest work, and the purpose and privilege of life. Nothing can take the place of home in rearing and teaching children, and no other success can compensate for failure in the home.

Next to the bestowal of life itself, the right to direct that life is God's greatest gift to man.

A man who cannot control his temper is not very likely to control his passions, and no matter what his pretensions in religion, he moves in daily life very close to the animal plane.

The greatest comfort in this life is having a close relationship with God.
