• La guerra es horrible. Nada, ni el valor con el que se lucha ni la nobleza de la causa a la que sirve, puede glorificar la guerra.

• When I was younger, my whole sense of self-worth was based on whether or not I was working, which was awful. And I had a baby at 20 years old, so it wasn't just about me.

• Not to discriminate every moment some passionate attitude in those about us, and in the very brilliancy of their gifts some tragic dividing of forces on their ways, is, on this short day of frost and sun, to sleep before evening.

  Walter Pater

• El peso acumulativo de todos los pecados mortales -pasados, presentes y futuros- sobre aquella Alma perfecta, sin pecado y sensible. Todas nuestras dolencias y enfermedades fueron de alguna manera, también, una parte de la terrible aritmética de la Expiación. (Véase Alma 7:11-12; Isaías 53:3-5; Mateo 8:17.) El angustiado Jesús no sólo suplicó al Padre que la hora y la copa pasaran de Él, sino con esta cita pertinente. Y dijo: Abba, Padre, todas las cosas te son posibles; aparta de mí esta copa' (Marcos 14:35-36.)

  Neal A. Maxwell
