Gordon B. Hinckley

Life is to be enjoyed, not endured.

Try a little harder to be a little better.

True love is not so much a matter of romance as it is a matter of anxious concern for the well-being of one's companion.

Generally speaking, the most miserable people I know are those who are obsessed with themselves; the happiest people I know are those who lose themselves in the service of others...By and large, I have come to see that if we complain about life, it is because we are thinking only of ourselves.

If Life Gets Too Hard To Stand, Kneel.

You have not failed until you quit trying.

In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured.

Good books are as friends, willing to give to us if we are willing to make a little effort.

Cultivate an attitude of happiness. Cultivate a spirit of optimism. Walk with faith, rejoicing in the beauties of nature, in the goodness of those you love, in the testimony which you carry in your heart concerning things divine.

Stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight.

You can be smart and happy or stupid and miserable. . . it's your choice.
