Maybe the hardest part is you, if you teach, you have to live your teaching. You can't say, you do not as I do, but do as I say. No, no.

You have to say, I'm doing my best to live what I teach.

I have a painting by Phoebe of a group that she called Sister Suke's Funeral.

And they're all the women, they're about nine women,

and they all look like women in my grandmother's prayer meeting group. So whenever I'm obliged

to do something, I take that painting and I look at that painting, there's an empty chair,

and I think, now, what would grandma do?

What would she say? I can almost hear her voice, say, now, sister, you know what's right?

Just do right. You don't really have to ask anybody. The truth is, right may not be expedient.

It may not be profitable.

But it will satisfy your soul.

It brings you the kind of protection that bodyguards can't give you.

Try to be all you can be, to be the best human being you can be.

Try to be that in your church, in your temple. Try to be that in your classroom. Do it because it is right to do.

You see, people will know you and they will add their prayers to your life.

They'll wish you well.

I think if your name is mentioned and people say, oh hell, oh damn, and then you're doing something wrong. But if your name is mentioned and people say, oh, hell. Oh, damn. I think you're doing something wrong. But if your name is mentioning people say,

oh, she's so sweet, he's so nice.

Oh, I love, oh, God bless her.
