"I wish to be up and doing. I wish to face each day with resolution and purpose. I wish to use every waking hour to give encouragement, to bless those whose burdens are heavy, to build faith and strength of testimony."
Gordon B. Hinckley (May, 1998 Ensign)

A Day No Pigs Would Die
"One chore done good beats two done ragged."
"Papa works all the time. He don't never rest. And worse than that, he works inside himself. I can see it on his face. Like he's been trying all his life to catch up to something. But whatever it is, it's always ahead of him, and he can't reach it."
"That's what being a man is all about, boy. It's just doing what's got to be done."
"It's hell to be poor!"
"When you're the only one to do something, it always gets done."
"Somewhere down under all that Vermont clay was my father, Haven Peck. Buried deep in the land he sweated so hard and longed to own so much. And now it owned him."
Robert Newton Peck
