Quote - Humility


"Do we really comprehend, do we understand the tremendous significance of that which we have? This is the summation of the generations of man, the concluding chapter in the entire panorama of the human experience.


"But this does not put us in a position of superiority. Rather, it should humble us. It places upon us an unforgiving responsibility to reach out with concern for all others in the spirit of the Master, who taught, 'Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself' (Matthew 19:19). We must cast out self- righteousness and rise above petty self-interest."


--Gordon B Hinckley, "The Dawning of a Brighter Day," Ensign, May 2004, 83-84
