President Gordon B. Hinckley once said: "Life is to be enjoyed, not endured." This is a blog of my favorite quotes, short stories, and general things that I enjoy. I hope you find them enjoyable too! As I find more things I will add them. Disclaimer: I am not perfect. Where possible I will provide accurate references.

Spencer W. Kimball
"Yes the devil is decidedly a person. He is also clever and trained. With thousands of years of experience behind him he has become superbly efficient and increasingly determined... In fact even more experienced adults cannot afford to be sure of their resistence to Satan."--Spencer W. Kimball

Spencer W. Kimball
I had to find one more.
“Jesus said several times, “Come, follow me.” His was a program of “do what I do,” rather than “do what I say.” His innate brilliance would have permitted him to put on a dazzling display, but that would have left his followers far behind. He walked and worked with those he was to serve. His was not a long-distance leadership. He was not afraid of close friendships; he was not afraid that proximity to him would disappoint his followers. The leaven of true leadership cannot lift others unless we are with and serve those to be led.”
