“A proverb in the Old Testament states: 'He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his
spirit than he that taketh a city (Proverbs 16:32)'…
… I plead with you to control your tempers,
to put a smile upon your faces, which will erase anger; speak out with words of
love and peace, appreciation, and respect. If you will do this, your lives will
be without regret. Your marriages and family
relationships will be preserved. You will be much happier. You will do greater
good. You will feel a sense of peace that will be wonderful.
May the Lord bless you and inspire you
to walk without anger, without bitterness of any kind, but to reach out to
others with expressions of friendship, appreciation, and love.”
President Gordon B. Hinkley, "Slow To Anger", October 2007 General Conference.
