"It is when we become angry that we get
into trouble…
Divorce too often is the bitter fruit of
anger. A man and a woman fall in love, as they say; each is wonderful in the
sight of the other; they feel romantic affection for no one else; they stretch
their finances to buy a diamond ring; they marry. All is bliss—that is, for a
season. Then little inconsequential activities lead to criticism. Little flaws
are magnified into great torrents of faultfinding; they fall apart, they
separate, and then with rancor and bitterness they divorce.
It is the cycle which is repeated again
and again in thousands of cases. It is tragic, and, as I have said, it is in
most cases the bitter fruit of anger."
President Gordon B. Hinkley, "Slow To Anger", October 2007 General Conference.
