Wow! That was a lot of hair! I hardly recognize him.

"And with the encroachment of Babylon, we have to create Zion in the midst of it. We should not allow ourselves to be engulfed by the culture which surrounds us. We seldom realize the extent to which we are a product of the culture of our place and time."

"[The] commandment to 'beware concerning [ourselves]' prompts us to be careful concerning everything about us—the type of social settings we enter, what we see and read, the media and entertainment we choose, the music we listen to, and more."

Happy Mother's Day

"I am always moved by this simple verse of Anne Campbell, written in behalf of her child. Said she:

You are the trip I did not take;
You are the pearls I cannot buy;
You are my blue Italian lake;
You are my piece of foreign sky.

("To My Child," quoted in Charles L. Wallis, ed., The Treasure Chest [1965], 54.)

-President Gordon B. Hinckley {Oct. 06}

"Many of you are mothers. You are responsible for the nurture and upbringing of your children. When you grow old and your hair turns white, you will not ask about the fancy clothes you once wore, the cars you drove, or the large house in which you lived. Your burning question will be, 'How have my children turned out?'"

-President Gordon B. Hinckley {Oct. 06}
