You want to know some of my favorite conference quotes? Okay.
Desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions. The desires we act on determine our changing, our achieving, and our becoming. -Dallin H. Oaks
We have great cause for concern. But we do not need to let our fears displace our faith. We can combat those fears by strengthening our faith. -Russell M. Nelson
Unfailing faith is fortified through prayer. Your heartfelt pleadings are important to Him. -Russell M. Nelson
The love the Savior described is an active love. It is not manifested through large and heroic deeds but rather through simple acts of kindness and service. -M. Russell Ballard
Hope can inspire dreams and spur us to realize those dreams. Hope alone, however, does not cause us to succeed. Many honorable hopes have gone unfulfilled, shipwrecked on the reefs of good intentions and laziness. -Steven E. Snow
Our hope in the Atonement empowers us with eternal perspective. Such perspective allows us to look beyond the here and now on into the promise of the eternities. We don’t have to be trapped in the narrow confines of society’s fickle expectations. We are free to look forward to celestial glory, sealed to our family and loved ones. -Steven E. Snow
Too often we attend meetings and nod our heads; we might even smile knowingly and agree. We jot down some action points, and we may say to ourselves, “That is something I will do.” But somewhere between the hearing, the writing of a reminder on our smartphone, and the actual doing, our “do it” switch gets rotated to the “later” position. Brethren, let’s make sure to set our “do it” switch always to the “now” position! -Dieter F. Uchtdorf
The spirit of revelation is available to every person who receives by proper priesthood authority the saving ordinances of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins and the laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost—and who is acting in faith to fulfill the priesthood injunction to “receive the Holy Ghost.” ... Sincere desire and worthiness invite the spirit of revelation into our lives. -David A. Bednar
Those who understand the eternal blessings which come from the temple know that no sacrifice is too great, no price too heavy, no struggle too difficult in order to receive those blessings. There are never too many miles to travel, too many obstacles to overcome, or too much discomfort to endure. -Thomas S. Monson
Pure love is an incomparable, potent power for good. Righteous love is the foundation of a successful marriage. -Richard G. Scott
f we sincerely desire and strive to measure up to the high expectations of our Heavenly Father, He will ensure that we receive all the help we need, whether it be comforting, strengthening, or chastening. -D. Todd Christofferson
No, in matters of discipleship the Church is not a fast-food outlet; we can’t always have it “our way.” Some day every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is the Christ and that salvation can only come His way.....if we teach by the Spirit and you listen by the Spirit, some one of us will touch on your circumstance, sending a personal prophetic epistle just to you. -Thomas S. MonsonAsk me next week or even tomorrow, and I'll tell you different quotes, but they will be just as good if not better. :)

I heart the Quinney. I have so many good memories of the slow days there... Have you heard your fortune lately?
