“Do not take comfort in the fact that your transgressions are not known by others. That is like an ostrich with his head buried in the sand. He sees only darkness and feels comfortably hidden. In reality he is ridiculously conspicuous. Likewise our every act is seen by our Father in Heaven and His Beloved Son. They know everything about us… . I invite each one of you to thoughtfully review your life… . Is there a dark corner that needs to be cleaned out? … When it is quiet and you can think clearly, does your conscience tell you to repent?” (Richard G. Scott, Ensign, May 1995, p. 77)
