- “Maintain your inner calm by forcing yourself to stop on a regular basis and “listen to the silence”.” Eat That Frog, Brian Tracy, Page 95
- “Our ancient and modern prophets and seers teach us how we can “abide the day of his coming” (D&C 61:39). I love that word—abide. It conveys so much more than “surviving” the day of His coming, or “enduring” the day of His coming. It conveys peace, calm, rest, and safety.” The Second Coming of the Lord by Gerald N. Lund
- “Later the Prophet said feelingly, but calmly and courageously, I am going like a lamb to the slaughter, but I am as calm as a summer’s morning. I have a conscience void of offense toward God and toward all men. If they take my life I shall die an innocent man, and my blood shall cry from the ground for vengeance, and it shall be said of me. He was murdered in cold blood.” Manual, Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Ezra Taft Benson, Chapter 7, Joseph Smith An Instrument in the Hands of the Lord, History of the Church, 6:555, .21
