“A prophet is wonderful because he sometimes speaks for the Lord. This occurs on certain occasions when the Lord wills it. On other occasions, he speaks for himself, and one of the wonderful doctrines of the Church is that we don’t believe in the infallibility of any mortal.”

Henry Eyring, Science and Mormonism 1: Cosmos, Earth, and Man (Salt Lake City, UT: Eborn Books, 2016), 103.
