Quotes

View selected quotes from this page in Wilford Woodruff's journal.

When I closed, Mr. Randolph Alex- ander, who had never heard a "Mor- mon" Elder speak before, said, the people of the present day made him think of a pen of hogs; the keeper would make a trough, and pour into it hot or cold water, dish water, or anything else, and they would drink it; but let a stranger come along, and pour over a basket of corn on the back side of the pen, and the hogs would be frightened, and run and snort all over the pen. He said it was so with the people; the priests would feed them with any kind of doctrine, no matter how false, the people will swallow it down; but let a stranger come and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which will save the people, as Mr. Woodruff has done, and the peo- ple are afraid of him.
~ Wilford Woodruff
As Joseph was about to cross the river, a man came to him and asked him if he would go about three miles and heal two of his small children, who were twins, about three months old, and were sick nigh unto death. He was a man of the world, he had never heard a sermon preached by a Latter-day Saint. Joseph said he could not go, but he would send a man. After hesitating a moment, he turned to me and said, "You go with this man and heal his children," at the same time giving me a red silk handkerchief, and said, "After you lay hands upon them, wipe their faces with it, and they shall be healed; and as long as you will keep that handker- chief, it shall ever remain as a league between you and me." I went and did as I was commanded, and the children were healed.
~ Wilford Woodruff
I have ever been impressed, since my first acquaintance with the Church and kingdom of God upon the earth, with the importance of keeping a journal and record of the dealings of God with this people, and our official acts in the ministry, and under this view I have written sketches of most of the sermons and teachings which I have heard from the mouth of Joseph Smith the Prophet, and many of the teachings of the Twelve Apostles and others. Believing this course to be beneficial, I would recommend the Elders of Israel to do likewise, that what is recorded on earth may be re- corded in heaven.
~ Wilford Woodruff

Varied and diverse are the lives and fortunes of men; while the paths of some are strewn with flowers and ease from the cradle to the grave, with naught to disturb their peace, others are marked victims of varied misfortunes, accidents and dangers. The last-named class is the one in whose ranks I have stood through my infancy, childhood, youth and man- hood, up to the present time, so much so, that it has seemed as though some invisible power or fate was watching my footsteps, in order to find some opportunity to take my life from the earth. I can only attribute the con- tinuation of my life to the present time to a merciful God, whose hand has been stretched out, and rescued me from death in the midst of the many dangers and hairbreadth escapes I have passed through,
~ Wilford Woodruff
