Ezra Taft Benson

God will have a humble people. Either we can choose to be humble, or we can be compelled to be humble. ”

Godly sorrow is a gift of the Spirit. It is a deep realization that our actions have offended our Father and our God. It is the sharp and keen awareness that our behavior caused the Savior, He who knew no sin, even the greatest of all, to endure agony and suffering. ”

In the scriptures there is no such thing as righteous pride. It is always considered as a sin. ”

In a home where there is an able-bodied husband, he is expected to be the breadwinner. ”

Pride is ugly. It says, 'If you succeed, I am a failure.' ”

Some prideful people are not so concerned as to whether their wages meet their needs as they are that their wages are more than someone else's. Their reward is being a cut above the rest. This is the enmity of pride. ”

With pride, there are many curses. With humility, there come many blessings. ”

Pride is a sin that can readily be seen in others but is rarely admitted in ourselves. ”

The literal resurrection of every soul who has lived and died on earth is a certainty, and surely one should make careful preparation for this event. A glorious resurrection should be the goal of every man and woman, for resurrection will be a reality. ”

Inspiring music may fill the soul with heavenly thoughts, move one to righteous action, or speak peace to the soul. ”
