“Repent of [Our] Selfishness” (D&C 56:8)
Elder Neal A. Maxwell
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Selfishness is slow self-destruction that fuels sin and cultural decline; meekness and unselfish submission, like the Savior's, are the cure.
“In one degree or another we all struggle with selfishness.”
“selfishness is really self-destruction in slow motion”
“Selfishness is actually the detonator of all the cardinal sins.”
“The unselfish are also more free.”
“Meekness is the real cure”
Scriptures
D&C 56:8; Hel. 4:26; 2 Ne. 28:21
