Nature's creatures are the true saints.


"On my way back to the city [Salt Lake] the next day, I met a grave old Mormon with whom I had previously held some Latter-Day discussions.  I shook my big handful of mountain lilies in his face and shouted, 'Here are the true saints, ancient and Latter-Day, enduring forever!'  After he had recovered from his astonishment, he said, 'They are nice.' "
