I saw this post and it inspired me to make a list of my favorite talks.  I have really enjoyed listening to talks while running these past 3 or 4 months.  Here's some good ones to start with.  Hopefully I can add a lot more as the years go by.

Elder Holland -The Laborers in the Vineyard (April Conference 2012)

Elder Wirthlin - One Step after Another (October Conference 2001)

President Uchtdorf - Forget Me Not (October Conference 2011)

Brad Wilcox - His Grace is Sufficient (BYU Speech July 2011)

Howard W Hunter - Fear Not Little Flock (BYU Speech March 1989)

Elder Holland - Israel, Israel, God Is Calling (CES Fireside 2012)

Elder Holland - An High Priest of Good Things to Come (October Conference 1999)

Still trying to figure out what post goes on what blog.  It can be so tricky having 2 blogs.  :)  I think I'll post this one on both.

I love quotes.  I call myself a quote girl.  In preparing the YW lesson I made the girls a quote book filled with quotes about being a daughter of God.  I may have gone a little overboard and used more than a few quotes.  :)  That happens.

Here are some gems:

Sister Dalton - Young women, look into the mirror of eternity. See yourself as our Heavenly Father sees you. You are elect. You are of noble birth. You were born to be a queen. 

President Uchtdorf - Sisters, wherever you are, whatever your circumstances may be, you are not forgotten. No matter how dark your days may seem, no matter how insignificant you may feel, no matter how overshadowed you think you may be, your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you. In fact, He loves you with an infinite love.

Elder Wirthlin - We don’t have to be perfect today. We don’t have to be better than someone else. All we have to do is to be the very best we can.

President Hinckley - Of all the creatures of the Almighty there is none more beautiful, none more inspiring than a lovely daughter of God.
