The mothers show us that it is the experience of touching the pain of others that is the key to change. Jim Wallis

Surely the first people we will seek to find there will be father, mother, spouse, children, and siblings. M. Russell Ballard

Learning the lessons of the past allows you to build personal testimony on a solid bedrock of obedience, faith, and the witness of the Spirit. M. Russell Ballard
