Celestial Marriage

I read Elder Nelson's latest talk in the October 2008 General Conference about Celestial Marriage.  I found some good one liners:
- "While salvation is an individual matter, exaltation is a family matter."
- "All Church activities, advancements, quorums, and classes are means to the end of an exalted family."
- "The earth was created and this Church was restored so that families could be formed, sealed, and exalted eternally."
- "each marriage starts with two built-in handicaps. It involves two imperfect people."
- President Monson said, "To find real happiness, we must seek for it in a focus outside ourselves. No one has learned the meaning of living until he has surrendered his ego to the service of his fellow man. Service to others is akin to duty—the fulfillment of which brings true joy.”
