I'd much rather be in bed early and getting up in the wee hours of the morning.

• Some worry endlessly over missions that were missed, or marriages that did not turn out, or babies that did not arrive, or children that seem lost, or dreams unfulfilled, or because age limits what they can do.

  Boyd K. Packer

  Dream, Baby, Children

• The end of all activity in the church is to see that a man and a woman with their children are happy at home, sealed for eternity.
