"I had a father-in-law who came from difficult circumstances as a young man and he told me several times, 'You have two chances for a happy, eternal family.  The first one is the one you're born into; the second one is the one you create.  And it's the second one that counts.  Don't blow your second chance.'"

Julie S. Beck, BYU-Idaho Devotional April 2013

"For as God bestows any ability or gift upon any of us, he binds us to such as have need of us and as we are able to help."

-John Calvin

Courage

"Courage is required to make an initial thrust toward one's coveted goal, but even greater courage is called for when one stumbles and must make a second effort to achieve."

-Thomas S. Monson, Living the Abundant Life
