"There is an old saying of the patriots you remember: 'I'm only one but I am one. I cannot do everything but I can do something. And what I can do that I will do, so help me God.' But there is a need to remember something else from Anne Morrow Lindbergh, who concluded with this statement, and I have applied it to my own thinking. 'My life cannot implement in action the demands of all the people to whom my heart responds.' I wish you could understand when I read that how I express that. . . . I wish I could do more. I wish I could be a thousand times more understanding, could deal a thousand times more kindly, a thousand times with more wisdom and foresight. But if it pleases God, I only want what He wants me to have" (The Teachings of Harold B. Lee, p. 180-181).
