A Test of Integrity
“Perhaps the surest test of
an individual's integrity,” President Monson says, “is his refusal to do or say
anything that would damage his self-respect.”
President Monson has also
counseled that the principle of honesty is not outdated. Rather, it is
particularly important in our world today.
“In our time,” he says, “when
otherwise honorable men bend the law, twist the law, and wink at violations of
the law, when crime goes unpunished, legally imposed sentences go unserved, and
irresponsible and illegal conduct soars beyond previously recorded heights,
there is a very real need to return to the basic justice that the laws provide
when honest men sustain them.”
--President Monson in Honesty Is Best
