"It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound.(not good)"
                        -Joseph Smith

This quote is trying to say that in order to do good you must not only do good with your actions but also do good with your words. In order to be good and make a difference you must not only choose to do something by helping with only your hands but you must also help with your words. Sometimes the greatest impact can hit you when there are specific words spoken to you. You must never choose to say the bad words and say that you still did good because that is not true. The only way you have done truly good is if both your actions and your words are clean. For example if you want to make a difference such as be the president then you have to be equal to everyone. You can't say rude comments about certain people or races because then others will follow and then you see the consequences for the things you said. But if you decided to keep your rude comments aside and said other things such as how many people work hard to make this country what it is today, then people will follow those footsteps and there won't be so much riots about it. Everything is said to guide you to a specific answer. But only you words and actions can guide you to the right one.
