Spencer W. Kimball

To be a righteous woman is a glorious thing in any age.  To be a righteous woman during the winding-up scenes on this earth, before the second coming of our Savior, is an especially noble calling.  The righteous woman's strength and influence today can be tenfold what it might be in more tranquil times.  She has been placed here to help, to enrich, to protect and to guard the home - which is society's basic and most noble institution.  Other institutions in society may falter and even fail, but the righteous woman can help to save the home, which may be the last and only sanctuary some mortals know in the midst of storm and strife.

Spencer W. Kimball, as quoted in Daughters in my Kingdom, ch.9
