choices

“Just because something is good is not a sufficient reason for doing it. … Of course it is good to view wholesome entertainment or to obtain interesting information. But not everything of that sort is worth the portion of our life we give to obtain it. Some things are better, and others are best.”
Dallin H. Oaks, “Good, Better, Best,” Liahona and Ensign, Nov. 2007, 104, 105.
