Prophet Statesmen, Brigham Young
Will the Constitution be destroyed? No; it will be held inviolate by this people; and, as Joseph Smith said, ‘the time will come when the destiny of the nation will hang upon a single thread. At this critical juncture, this people will step forth and save it from the threatened destruction.’ It will be so.
President Brigham Young, 1854, Journal of Discourses, Volume 7, p.15.
