The Strong Should Be Humble and Kind

The being that has comparatively no strong passion to overcome ought constantly to walk in the vale of humility, rather than boast of his righteousness over his brother... Those who have not strong passions to contend with, day by day, and year by year, should walk in the vale of humiliation [humility]; and if brethren and sisters are overtaken in fault, your hearts should be filled with kindness—with brotherly, angelic feeling—to overlook their faults as far as possible. (Brigham Young, remarks made in the Bowery, Great Salt Lake City, July 22, 1860. Reported by G.D. Watt.)
