THOUGHTS ON THOUGHTS
 

President Ezra Taft Benson, General Conference, October 1988:

        "I challenge the homes of Israel to display on their walls great quotations and pictures from the Book of Mormon."

President Gordon B. Hinckley:

        "The older I grow, the more I enjoy the words of thoughtful writers, ancient and modern, and the savoring of that which they have written."

President Ezra Taft Benson:

        "It is our privilege to store our memories with good and great thoughts and bring them out...of our minds at will."

President Gordon B. Hinckley:

        "(We) need to grow constantly, to stretch the mind, to enlarge understanding, to be nurtured by the thoughts of great men and women of all ages."


Ethna R. Reid, director of the Examplary Center for Reading Instruction and of the Reid School:

        "Identify heroes and heroines:  Bring into the home pictures and words of famous people of character.  Think great thoughts.  Consider having a hero of the week to feature.  Also remember heroic people that the children have contact with on a regular basis that they can look up to."

        “The short sayings of wise and good men are of great value, like the dust of gold and the sparks of diamonds.”

Tillotson
 “Start every day with an inspiring thought.”

 "A drop of ink may make a million think."
