Young people, some of whom are not born into the faith, are being fired up by preachers using basic Islamic scripture and mobilized to wage jihad by radical imams who represent themselves as legitimate Muslim clergymen. -- Ayaan Hirsi Ali
Pride is tough. You go to high school, and its 'pride,' 'courage;' it's all these types of words that we use to motivate us. I don't think there's anywhere in the Scriptures through the saints' lives where pride was ever a positive characteristic of anybody. -- Troy Polamalu
Worldly influences would hinder use of our agency afforded through the Atonement of Jesus Christ.

It affects how we pray, how we study the scriptures, how we worship at church. -- David A. Bednar
Only the most unapologetic biblical fundamentalists, for instance, take every biblical injunction literally. If we all took all scripture at the same level of authority, then we would be more open to slavery, to the subjugation of women, to wider use of stoning. Jesus himself spoke out frequently against divorce in the strongest of terms. -- Jon Meacham

When I am in situations where I break out of the pattern, it's hard on me. Once you get used to regular scripture study, you miss it if you don't have it. It's like food - you have to have it. I know that I need the scriptures like I need food. I don't miss a regular meal, and I don't miss regular scripture study. -- Henry B. Eyring
You can use songs, scriptures and godly pictures to chart your thought-course in the right direction. -- Agu Jaachynma N.E.
What good can the scriptures do to a man who has no sense of his own? Of what use is as mirror to a blind man? -- Chanakya
