If there is a brownie or cookie laying around, you cannot expect me to leave it there. Just saying.
Also, Elder Pace's talk from general conference October 1987 is fabulous. Some of my favorite parts-
"Don't mistake telestial pleasure for celestial happiness and joy."
"To those of you who are inching your way closer and closer to that great and spacious building, let me make it completely clear that the people in that building have absolutely nothing to offer except instant, short-term gratification inescapably connected to long-term sorrow and suffering."
"The commandments you observe were not given by a dispassionate God to prevent you from having fun, but by a loving Father in Heaven who wants you to be happy while you are living on this earth as well as in the hereafter."
"No popular vote can change an absolute, eternal truth. Legalizing an act does not make it moral."
