"We need to learn, practice, study, know and understand how angels live with each other.  When this community comes to the point to be perfectly honest and upright, you will never find a poor person; none will lack, all will have sufficient.  Every man, woman, and child will have all they need just as soon as they all become honest.  When the majority of the community are dishonest, it maketh the honest portion poor, for the dishonest serve and enrich themselves at their expense." ( John A. Widtsoe.  Discourses of Brigham Young. Deseret Book.  Salt Lake City. 1976. pg. 232.)
