President Gordon B. Hinckley passed away this evening. I'm amazed at what he accomplished in his lifetime. His counsel and inspiration have significantly influenced my life.
Some of my favorite quotes from him:
"Love is the only force that can erase the differences between people - that can bridge chasms of bitterness."
"The course of our lives is seldom determined by great, life-altering decisions. Our direction is often by the small, day-to-day choices that chart the track on which we run. This is the substance of our lives - making choices."
"Age is more a matter of how you feel, how you think, and what's going on in your head than what's going on in your feet."
"In all of living have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured."
"Shape up. I say that to myself constantly. Shape up. Stand a little taller. Be a little better, a little stronger, a little more thoughtful, a little humbler, a little more prayerful..."
