"When a man shuns effort, he is in no position to resist temptation. So, through all the ages, idleness has been known as the parent of all the vices."
(David Starr Jordan, The Strength of Being Clean [New York and Boston: H.M. Caldwell Co., 1900], pp. 18–19.), as quoted in "The Nobility of Man in Choosing Good over Evil" by Elder Alvin R. Dyer, Assistant to the Council of the Twelve, General Conference, October 1971, https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/1971/10/the-nobility-of-man-in-choosing-good-over-evil?lang=eng
