"Revelations will probably never come unless they are desired. I think few people receive revelations while lounging on the couch or while playing cards or while relaxing. I believe most revelations would come when a man is on his tip toes, reaching as high as he can for something which he knows he needs, and then there bursts upon him the answer to his problems."
(When asked about overturning the priesthood ban): "I don’t know that I should be the one doing this, but if I don’t my successor won’t."
Spencer W. Kimball
