David O. McKay Quotes About Liberty

Quotes about: Liberty

• Let us instill into the hearts of our children the love of freedom. Teach them that to be free is as precious as life itself.

You teachers, feel it in your hearts; instill it into the hearts of these precious children. May the Church of Jesus Christ ever stand true to the ideals of freedom.
