Character is the aim of true education; and science,
history and literature are but means used to accomplish
this desired end. Character is not the result of
chance, but of continuous right thinking and right
acting. True education seeks to make men and women
not only good mathematicians, proficient linguists,
profound scientists, or brilliant literary lights, but
also, honest men, with virtue, temperance, and brotherly
love. It seeks to make men and women who prize truth,
justice, wisdom, benevolence and self-control as the
choicest acquisitions of a successful life. It is
regrettable that modern education so little emphasizes
these fundamental elements of true character. ~~President
David O. McKay~~

Let love and peace and the Spirit of the Lord, kindness,
charity, sacrifice for others, abound in your
families... Teach to your children these things, in
spirit and power, sustained and strengthened by personal
practice. Let them see that you are earnest and
practice what you preach. Do not let your children
out to specialists in these things, but teach them by your
own precept and example, by your own fireside. Be a
specialist yourself in the truth. Let our meetings,
schools and organizations, instead of being our only or
leading teachers, be supplements to our teachings and
training in the home. ~~President Joseph F. Smith~~ |
