David O. McKay quotes about
The united, well-ordered American home is one of the greatest contributing factors to the preservation of the Constitution of the United States.
I wish to emphasize the fact that our homes should be more attractive and that more of our amusements should be in the home instead of the streets.
True Christianity is love in action.
Everyone is possessed with an irresistible desire to know his relationship to the Infinite.
The world is hungry to hear the truth. ... We have it. Are we equal to the task-to the responsibility God has placed upon us?
The latest I like to be to meeting is 15 minutes early
No parent can consistently teach faith in Christ who profanes the name of Deity. Profanity is never heard in the well-ordered home. Swearing is a vice that bespeaks a low standard of breeding. Blasphemous exclamations drive out all spirit of reverence.
The seeds of a happy marriage are sown in youth. Happiness does not begin at the altar; it begins during the period of youth and courtship.
There is a crying need today to have this truth heralded throughout the land that youth especially may appreciate and hold the freedom of the individual as sacred as did our revolutionary fathers.
