Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
The proud do not change to improve, but defend their position by rationalizing. Repentance means change, and it takes a humble person to change.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
With pride, there are many curses. With humility, there come many blessings.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Godly sorrow is a gift of the Spirit. It is a deep realization that our actions have offended our Father and our God. It is the sharp and keen awareness that our behavior caused the Savior, He who knew no sin, even the greatest of all, to endure agony and suffering.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the foundation upon which sincere and meaningful repentance must be built. If we truly seek to put away sin, we must first look to Him who is the Author of our salvation.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Our parents deserve our honor and respect for giving us life itself. Beyond this they almost always made countless sacrifices as they cared for and nurtured us through our infancy and childhood, provided us with the necessities of life, and nursed us through physical illnesses and the emotional stresses of growing up.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Every man eventually is backed up to the wall of faith, and there he must make his stand.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
To love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength is all-consuming and all-encompassing. It is no lukewarm endeavor.

Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
To lose yourself in righteous service to others can lift your sights and get your mind off personal problems, or at least put them in proper focus.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Periodic fasting can help clear up the mind and strengthen the body and the spirit.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ takes the slums out of people, and then they take themselves out of the slums.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
False thinking and false ideologies, dressed in the most pleasing forms, quietly - almost without our knowing it - seek to reduce our moral defenses and to captivate our minds. They entice with bright promises of security, cradle-to-grave guarantees of many kinds.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Fatherhood is not a matter of station or wealth. It is a matter of desire, diligence and determination to see one's family exalted in the celestial kingdom. If that prize is lost, nothing else really matters.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Youth is the spirit of adventure and awakening. It is a time of physical emerging when the body attains the vigor and good health that may ignore the caution of temperance. Youth is a period of timelessness when the horizons of age seem too distant to be noticed.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Be right, and then be easy to live with, if possible, but in that order.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
The human body is the tabernacle of the spirit, and God expects that it be kept clean and unimpaired.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
We must not lose hope. Hope is an anchor to the souls of men. Satan would have us cast away that anchor.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Selfishness is one of the more common faces of pride. 'How everything affects me' is the center of all that matters - self-conceit, self-pity, worldly self-fulfillment, self-gratification, and self-seeking.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
God loves us; the devil hates us. God wants us to have a fulness of joy as He has. The devil wants us to be miserable as he is. God gives us commandments to bless us. The devil would have us break these commandments to curse us.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Prayer in the hour of need is a great boon. From simple trials to our Gethsemanes, prayer - persistent prayer - can put us in touch with God, our greatest source of comfort and counsel.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
When our Heavenly Father placed Adam and Eve on this earth, He did so with the purpose in mind of teaching them how to regain His presence. Our Father promised a Savior to redeem them from their fallen condition.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
The Declaration of Independence was to set forth the moral justification of a rebellion against a long-recognized political tradition - the divine right of kings.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
The Book of Mormon is the 'keystone' of our religion, and the Doctrine and Covenants is the 'capstone,' with continuing latter day revelation. The Lord has placed His stamp of approval on both the keystone and the capstone.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
One of the trials of life is that we do not usually receive immediately the full blessing for righteousness or the full cursing for wickedness.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
The Book of Mormon exposes the enemies of Christ. It confounds false doctrines and lays down contention.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
No man is truly educated unless he knows where he came from, why he is here, and where he can expect to go in the next life.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
With the Spirit and magnifying your call, you can do miracles for the Lord in the mission field. Without the Spirit, you will never succeed, regardless of your talent and ability.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Constitutional government, as designed by the framers, will survive only with a righteous people.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Christ changes men, who then change their environment. The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Daily, constantly, we choose by our desires, our thoughts, and our actions whether we want to be blessed or cursed, happy or miserable.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Build traditions of family vacations and trips and outings. These memories will never be forgotten by your children.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
In general, the more food we eat in its natural state - without additives - and the less it is refined, the healthier it will be for us. Food can affect the mind, and deficiencies of certain elements in the body can promote mental depression.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Was it not through pride that the devil became the devil? Christ wanted to serve. The devil wanted to rule.
Quote by -Ezra Taft Benson
Unless you and your mate are united in purpose, dedication, and loyalty, you will not succeed to the extent you otherwise could.
