Jeffrey R. Holland Quotes

My Concern Is That You Will Face Some Delays And Disappointments At This Formative Time In Your Life And Feel That No One Else In The History Of Mankind Has Ever Had Your Problems Or Faced Those Difficulties. And When Some Of Those Challenges Come, You Will Have The Temptation Common To Us All To Say, "This Task Is Too Hard. The Burden Is Too Heavy. The Path Is Too Long." And So You Decide To Quit, Simply To Give Up. Now To Terminate Certain Kinds Of Tasks Is Not Only Acceptable But Often Very Wise. If You Are, For Example, A Flagpole Sitter Then I Say, "Come On Down." But In Life's Most Crucial And Telling Tasks, My Plea Is To Stick With It, To Persevere, To Hang In And Hang On, And To Reap Your Reward.
