Security

"There is no real security except in the consistent adherance to principle.
We cannot succumb to the pressures of the moment by stepping off the rock of principle."
Elder D Todd Christofferson

Said of D Todd Christofferson:
"He was the recipient of many questions which he fielded with his trademark grace, humour and good judgement.
With uncommon, understated, eloquence and precision he has given inspired counsel on many gospel topics."

Properly Led

"Properly led, they endured incredible hardship, often without pay, without proper clothing, without proper food... 'It still rests with them to complete my wishes by adopting such a system of Policy as will ensure the future reputation, tranquility, happiness and glory of this extensive Empire.' The man is all in that passage - his humility, his pride, his sense of honour, his vision..."
said of, and by, George Washington
