i made this up while chatting with a friend:

It’s never too late to change, but it’s always too late to change the past.

“Life is a competition not with others, but with ourselves. We should seek each day to live stronger, better, truer lives; each day to master some weakness of yesterday; each day to repair a mistake; each day to surpass ourselves.”

—Elder David B. Haight

The price of peace is righteousness. Peace cannot be imposed. It must come from the lives and hearts of men. There is no other way.

—Ezra Taft Benson

found this quote:

“Our busy lives force us to focus on things we do from day to day. But the development of character comes only as we focus on who we really are.”
—Elder Russell M. Nelson

i found this quote on the LDS site, and i really liked it:

“Our business in life is not to get ahead of others but to get ahead of ourselves.”
—President Thomas S. Monson
Ensign, Feb. 2001, 5

i notice so much competition with people trying to get ahead of others or be better than others. do you see it too?

found this quote on the LDS church site. i really like it:

“So frequently we mistakenly believe that our children need more things, when in reality their silent pleadings are simply for more of our time.”
—President Thomas S. Monson
Ensign, May 1994, 62

Elder Marvin J. Ashton (1915-94) of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said: “If we would know true love and understanding one for another, we must realize that communication is more than a sharing of words. It is the wise sharing of emotions, feelings, and concerns. It is the sharing of oneself totally.”

i like this:

“There are no greater roles in life for a man than those of husband and father. Likewise, there are no greater roles for a woman than those of wife and mother.”
