◦ "...It is desirable that our children should learn to memorize important passages;
such that will leave a strong impression upon their lives; scriptural passages that they
will use as their guiding star; scriptural passages that will help to form convictions in
their minds of right and wrong; scriptural passages that will bring conviction to their
hearts." Elder Joseph M. Tanner, April 1901 General Conference
"I have a vision of thousands of missionaries going into the mission field with hundreds
of passages memorized from the Book of Mormon so that they might feed the needs of a
spiritually famished world."
President Ezra Taft Benson, October 1988 General Conference

Ether 12:6
And now, I, Moroni, would speak somewhat concerning these things; I would show unto the world that faith is things which are hoped for and not seen; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith.
Ether 12:27
And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.
