favorite quotes

I love quotes. I really do. Something about the way some people can just eloquently portray their thoughts in such a beautiful yet simple way ... I can't get enough of it. So, expect this page to expand. And expand. And maybe, just maybe, expand a little more. 

"Happy girls are the prettiest." - Audrey Hepburn

"I cannot abandon the girl I use to be, so I carry her."

"You can't live your life worrying that the world is staring at you. When you let people's opinions make you self-conscious, you give away your power. The key to feeling [confident] is to always listen to your inner self...[the real you.]" - Elder Jeffrey R. Holland


How is it that such a lovely voice which by divine nature is so angelic, so close to the veil, so instinctively gentle and inherently kind could ever in a turn be so shrill, so biting, so acrid and untamed? A woman’s words can be more piercing than any dagger ever forged, and they can drive the people they love to retreat beyond a barrier more distant than anyone in the beginning of that exchange could ever have imagined. Sisters, there is no place in that magnificent spirit of yours for acerbic or abrasive expression of any kind, including gossip or backbiting or catty remarks. - Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

"Remember when getting high meant swinging at the playgrounds, and the worst thing you could get from the opposite sex was cooties. Your Mom was the girl who married your hero, and your Dad was your hero. Your worst enemies were your teachers or siblings, and war was just a card game. Race issues were who could run the fastest and the only drug you knew was cough medicine. A girl wearing a skirt didn't mean she was a slut and using protection meant wearing a helmet. The only think you smoked were the tires on your bike, and the only cuts you got were from the mulch under the swing. Skinned knees were the only thing that hurt, and only your toys got broken... Life was simple and so carefree, but what I remember the most was wanting to grow up...♥"


"For in dreams we enter a world that is entirely our own." - Albus Dumbledore

 
“If you want to marry a wholesome, attractive, honest, happy, hardworking, spiritual person, be that kind of person.” —Elder Hales

“I knew somehow that I would never come first with him. I knew I was going to be second in his life and that the Lord was going to be first. And that was ok. I knew he was going to devout his life to the Lord and I couldn’t think of anyone I’d rather have him devoted to.” —Sister Hinckley

“If you want to see your wife’s heart melt, let her find you studying the doctrine of Christ or reading your scriptures!” —Pres. Nelson

“I am convinced that a husband is never more attractive to his wife than when he is serving in his God-given role as a worthy priesthood holder.” —Sister Burton

"Words are our most inexhaustible source of magic, capable of both inflicting injury and remedying it." - Albus Dumbledore


"Sometimes God lets you hit rock bottom so that you will discover that He is the rock at the bottom."


"Often, the answers to our prayers does not come while we're on our knees, but while we're on our feet serving The Lord and serving those around us."


"Stay strong, make them wonder how you're still smiling."


"Nothing is cute enough to compensate for how modesty feels."


"Why wish upon a star when you can pray to the one who created it?"


"Men, take care not to make women weep, for God counts their tears." - President Thomas S. Monson


"True happiness comes only by making others happy." - Elder David O. McKay


"Life is like photography, we develop from the negatives."


"We were born to die, and we die to live. As seedlings of God, we barely blossom on earth; we fully flower in heaven." - Elder Russell M. Nelson


"Power isn't determined by your size, but by the size of your heart and soul," - Monkey D. Luffy

"The best way to obtain truth is to not ask from books, but to go to God in prayer, and obtain divine teaching." - Joseph Smith

"Only by aligning our wills with God's is full happiness to be found... As one's will is increasingly submissive to the will of God, he can receive inspiration and revelation so much needed to help meet the trials of life. The submission of one's will is really the only unique thing we have to place on God's altar. The many other things we "give" are actually the things he has already given or loaned to us." -Neal A. Maxwell

"Love is like the North star; in a changing world, it is always constant" -Gordon B. Hinkley
