“You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible.”

Ezra T. Benson

Reflection: To feel right you have to do the right thing, not the wrong. It is impossible for that to occur. An example for this statement would be having a strong urge to have something that isn’t yours, and then steeling it. That would make you feel wrong, not right. Even if you have what you wanted all along. You won’t feel right for doing something wrong.
