“We must strive for literacy and education that teach us to never quit questioning and probing at the assumptions of the day.”

“Creativity is as important now in education as literacy and we should treat it with the same status.”

“If others tell us something we make assumptions, and if they don't tell us something we make assumptions to fulfill our need to know and to replace the need to communicate. Even if we hear something and we don't understand we make assumptions about what it means and then believe the assumptions. We make all sorts of assumptions because we don't have the courage to ask questions.”

“First, we must love the Lord with all our hearts, and we must love our children. Second, we must become a worthy example to them by continually seeking the Lord and striving to live the gospel. Third, we must teach our children the gospel and how to live its teachings.”

“We all make basic assumptions about things in life, but sometimes those assumptions are WRONG. We must never trust in what we assume, only in what we KNOW.”

“We must never forget that while striving to leave a better planet to our kids, it is just as important that we strive to leave better kids to our planet.”
