"If we can banish Satan from our presence, we shall do
a good work; for he it is who steps in and causes bickerings and strife. But if
we will be wide awake, and not let the enemy come in, there will be no
bickerings or strife, and we will be able to move the heavens and the earth if
necessary; we will be able to drive Satan from our midst, with all the kindred
spirits that are seeking our destruction." - Daniel H. Wells, "Journal of
Discourses," 26 vols., 5:43

"Do not let us be
discouraged at difficulties and trials, for we are sent to this state of
existence for the express purpose of descending below all things, that we may
pass the ordeals and trials of this life and thereby prove our integrity and be
prepared to rise above all things. And after all, we have not been called upon
to endure to that extent that the Savior of the world was. But he was not
subjected to the afflictions he had to endure without hope, neither are we; but
we are called to pass through them that we may prove whether we have power and
strength to stand in that day when all things shall be shaken, and nothing
doubting, cleave to the Lord our God with full purpose of heart, no matter how
much things are against us, apparently. If we can pass these tests and trails we
shall prove to God and angels that we are worthy to receive the welcome
plaudit, 'well done, thou good and
faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of the Lord.'"
- Daniel H. Wells, "Journal of Discourses,"
