Taking Offense

Church Educational System
We may get angry with our parents, or a teacher, or the bishop, and dwarf ourselves into nameless anonymity as we shrivel and shrink under the venom and poison of bitterness and hatred. While the hated one goes on about his business, little realizing the suffering of the hater, the latter cheats himself.

. . . To terminate activity in the Church just to spite leaders or to give vent to wounded feelings is to cheat ourselves.

(Spencer W. Kimball, Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, pp. 242–43)
