Another Great Quote

For those of you who don't know, I'm back in school this year online through BYU Independent Study. I just finished my first course and it was awesome! Only about 15 left to go! Anyway, while studying for the final exam I came across two great quotes:

1. "Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the world's work, and the power to appreciate life." - Brigham Young

2. "Above knowledge is wisdom, above wisdom is character." - David O. McKay

I'm not just finishing my degree so that I can get a better job, or have a nice looking diploma hang on my wall. I really want to learn and gain refinement, and like the scriptures say, "be wise."
