Brigham Young..............................

Brigham Young     1801-1877

"Never let a day so pass that you will have cause to say, 'I will live better to-morrow,'"

“Pray as though everything depended on the Lord and work as though everything depended on you.” 

"Why should we worry about what others think of us, do we have more confidence in their opinions than we do our own?"

"Love the giver more than the gift."

“He who takes offense when no offense is intended is a fool, and he who takes offense when offense is intended is a greater fool.” 

"Remember, a chip on the shoulder is a sure sign of wood higher up."

“Learn to be good for something.” 

"Nature is the glass reflecting God, as by the sea reflected is the sun, too glorious to be gazed on in his sphere."

“It is for us to do those things which the Lord requires at our hands, and leave the result with him.”
