"I should be right in matters that involved eternal consequences." - Joseph Smith

"Considering it of the first importance that I should be right in matters that involved eternal consequences."

"Being wrought up in my mind, respecting the subject of religion and looking at the different systems taught the children of men, I knew not who was right or who was wrong and considering it of the first importance that I should be right in matters that involved eternal consequences; being thus perplexed in mind, I retired to the silent grove and bowed down before the Lord."  - Joseph Smith (1835-36 Journal)
