“As surely as the dark gives meaning to the dawn, so does pain give meaning to pleasure, and sorrow to joy. All that we love, all that we strive for, all that we relish, we know only by contrast.”

“God’s power rests not on totalizing omnipotence, but on His ability to alchemize suffering, tragedy, and loss into wisdom, understanding, and joy.”

“I am more afraid that this people have so much confidence in their leaders that they will not inquire for themselves of God whether they are led by him.

― Brigham Young

“Holiness is found in how we treat others, not in how we contemplate the cosmos.”
