One of Jonathan's favorite quotes is:"Everyone's behavior makes sense to them. If someone is acting in a way that you find irrational, stupid, or disgusting, it often means you're not trying hard enough to grasp their experience. Even if you never agree with what they say, do, or think, this understanding will help you to relate to, correct, and build bridges with others- LIFE
But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you- JESUS CHRIST

is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things, that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor- CHARLES DICKENS
They were men who were true at all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted...for they had been taught to keep the commandments of God and to walk uprightly before him. Now they never had fought, yet they did not fear death; and they did think more upon the liberty of their fathers than they did upon their lives. They had been taught by their mothers that if they did not doubt, God would deliver them. And they rehearsed unto me the words of their mothers, saying: We do not doubt our mothers knew it- THE BOOK OF MORMON
The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother- THEODORE HESBURGH
A man filled with the love of God, is not content with blessing his family alone, but ranges through the whole world, anxious to bless the whole human race- JOSEPH SMITH
Lord make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me bring love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. Where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console. To be understood, as to understand. To be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we recieve. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned. And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. - ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI
It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might has well not have lived at all, in which case you have failed by default- J.K. ROWLING
