“I always feel that it is my duty to look to myself, for I am in as much danger of apostatizing as any in the Church. If I ever do get led astray and depart from the principles of the gospel of salvation, it will be because I led myself off from the path; it was not my brethren who led me away, it was my own doing.”
Hosea Stout/Danite – quoted by David McAllister in Utah History Encyclopedia, General Conference – 1858 (Salt Lake City, UT: University of Utah Press, 1994), Stout, Hosea.
