There are a lot of idiots on the Internet getting a lot of attention.
As we depend upon our masters, for what we eat and drink and wear, and for all our comfortable things in this world, we cannot be happy, unless we please them.
Those of you who can read I must beg you to read the Bible, and whenever you can get time, study the Bible, and if you can get no other time, spare some of your time from sleep, and learn what the mind and will of God is.
If there was no Bible, it would be no matter whether you could read or not. Reading other books would do you no good.
Let all the time you can get be spent in trying to learn to read.
The Bible is a revelation of the mind and will of God to men. Therein we may learn, what God is.
We live so little time in this world that it is no matter how wretched and miserable we are, if it prepares us for heaven.

For years we have been counseled to have on hand a year's supply of food. Yet there are some today who will not start storing until the Church comes out with a detailed monthly home storage program. Now suppose that never happens. We still cannot say we have not been told. Should the Lord decide at this time to cleanse the Church- and the need for that cleansing seems to be increasing- a famine in this land of one year's duration could wipe out a large percentage of slothful members, including some ward and stake officers. Yet we cannot say we have not been warned.

But glittering prizes and endless compromises, Shatter the illusion of integrity. . .
