Christ was Begotten by an immortal Father in the same way that mortal men are begotten by mortal fathers.

Bruce R. McConkie

We should feel dissonance; we are, after all, immortals trapped in mortal surroundings. We lack unity because long ago a gap fissured open between our mortal and immortal parts; theologians trace the fault line back to the Fall.

Philip Yancey

. . . the number of prayers we say may contribute to our happiness, but the number of prayers we answer may be of greater importance. Let us open our eyes and see the heavy hearts, notice the loneliness and despair; let us feel the silent prayers of others around us; and let us be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to answer those prayers.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Reason is immortal, all else mortal.

Pythagoras

Truth is immortal; error is mortal.

Mary Baker Eddy

Men are mortal, but ideas are immortal.

Walter Lippmann

Everything mortal has moments immortal

Amy Lowell

I finally knew... why Christ's prayer in the garden could not be granted. He had been seeded and birthed into human flesh. He was one of us. Once He had become mortal, He could not become immortal except by dying. That He prayed the prayer at all showed how human He was. That He knew it could not be granted showed his divinity; that He prayed it anyhow showed His mortality, His mortal love of life that His death made immortal.
