SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Doctrine and Covenants 130:18-19

"Whatever principle of intelligence we attain unto in this life, it will rise with us in the resurrection.  And if a person gains more knowledge and intelligence in this life through his diligence and obedience than another, he will have so much the advantage in the world to come."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Joseph F. Smith

"Fix in your minds noble thoughts, cultivate elevated themes, let your aims and aspirations be high. Be in a certain degree independent; to the degree of usefulness, helpfulness and self-reliance, though no human beings can be said truly to be independent of their fellow beings, and there is no one reckless enough to deny our utter dependence on our heavenly Father" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 319).
