"We know enough to damn us; and when we know enough for that, we know enough to save us, if that knowledge is improved upon." --Brigham Young Discourses of Brigham Young (August 11, 1999)
"The laws that the Lord has given are not fully perfect, because the people could not receive them in their perfect fullness; but they can receive a little here and a little there, a little today and a little tomorrow, a little more next week, and a little more in advance of that next year, if they make a wise improvement upon every little they receive; if they do not, they are left in the shade, and the light which the Lord reveals will appear darkness to them, and the kingdom of heaven will travel on and leave them groping. Hence, if we wish to act upon the knowledge that the Lord designs to reveal, little by little, to the inhabitants of the earth, we must improve upon every little as it is revealed." --Brigham Young Discourses of Brigham Young (August 11, 1999)
