“A friend … proudly boasted that his climb toward wealth had come from tireless work and lessons learned in the ‘school of hard knocks.’ But his fortune had come at the expense of his spiritual development. When it was too late, he regretfully discovered that his ladder of success had been leaning against the wrong wall.” (Russell M. Nelson, Ensign, Nov. 1992, p. 7)
