Love Quote by Marjorie Pay Hinckley

“The trouble with the world and the trouble with you and me is that we don't love each other enough. And if we do, we don't bother to show it, or we don't bother to say it. If the world is to know love, it has to be in your heart and in mine.” quote by Marjorie Pay Hinckley
