Page 1 ~ “Truth is sincerity; and in all we say and do, we must be sincere. We must not make false impressions, directly or indirectly.”

Page 9 ~ “Obedience is doing what is commanded, or not doing what is forbidden, because it is commanded of forbidden by one who has authority. Obedience should be prompt, faithful and cheerful.”
