- v. 32 - quote: “It is not necessary that our young people should know of the wickedness carried on in anyplace. Such knowledge is not elevating and it is quite likely that more than one young man can trace the first step of his downfall to a curiosity which led him into questionable places.” (Joseph F. Smith, Gospel Doctrine)
- v. 32 - quote: “The man or woman who enjoys the spirit of our religion has no trials; but the man or woman who tries to live according to the Gospel of the Son of God, and at the same time clings to the spirit of the world, has trials and sorrows acute and keen, and that, too, continually. This is the deciding point, the dividing line. They who love and serve God with all their hearts rejoice evermore, pray without ceasing, and in everything give thanks; but they who try to serve God and still cling to the spirit of the world, have got on two yokes – the yoke of Jesus and the yoke of the devil…They will have a warfare inside and outside, and the labor will be very galling, for they are directly in opposition one to the other. Cast off the yoke of the enemy and put on the yoke of Christ and you will say that his yoke is easy and his burden is light. This I know by experience.” (Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses)
