Thinking is the hardest work anyone can do, which is probably the reason why we have so few thinkers.

Our thinking will automatically improve when we remember the words of Paul: 'know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and the spirit of God dwelleth in you?

I testify that this work in which we're engaged is the Lord's work. I've felt His sustaining influence.

I counseled many returning missionaries. I interviewed 1,700 missionaries all over the world. My advice to them is that you should study and prepare for your life's work in a field that you enjoy.

Choose a field that will supply sufficient remuneration to provide adequately for your companion and your children. I bear testimony that these criteria are very important in choosing your life's work.

Clear thinking requires courage rather than intelligence.
