Humorous Sports Anecdote by Tommy Lasorda about Mr. Caruso
“The gym teacher’s name was Mr. Caruso. Mr. Caruso did not speak English. He spoke ‘Gym.’ One day I was playing basketball and Mr. Caruso told me I would have to get an athletic supporter. He didn’t express himself exactly that way, though. He said, ‘Hey, you, one day you’re gonna go up for a rebound and the family jewels aren’t gonna go with ya.’ I had no idea what he was talking about. Next day I showed up for practice without my watch and my mezuzah. He said, ‘Did ya take care of the family jewels?’ I said, ‘I left ’em in my locker.’ Took us a half hour to revive Mr. Caruso.”

C. S. Lewis Quote About Self-Discovery and Christ

Edwin Louis Cole on Lust and the Consequences of Sin
“The pleasures of sin exist. We cannot deny them. But we also dare not deny what follows in their wake: a voracious appetite, inflamed with eroticism, demanding more indulgence more often until a degenerative spiral captures the soul and drags us on a never ending descent into deeper patterns of immorality and illicit behaviour… Lust goes beyond the sexual. Lust can show itself in a variety of forms: covetousness, gluttony, drunkeness, power hunger, or unbridled ambition, to name a few”
Edwin Louis Cole
“The Duty to Be Alive” – Quote by Erich Fromm

Erich Fromm
“God Is the Same Yesterday, Today, and Forever” – Russell M. Nelson
“God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, but we are not. Each day, ours is the challenge to access the power of the Atonement so that we can truly change, become more Christlike, and qualify for the gift of exaltation and live eternally with God, Jesus Christ, and our families. For these powers, privileges, and gospel gifts, thanks be to God!”
Russell M. Nelson
