There is a reason why one man is born black and with other disadvantages, while another is born white with great advantages. The reason is that we once had an estate before we came here, and were obedient, more or less, to the laws that were given us there. Those who were faithful in all things there received greater blessings here, and those who were not faithful received less.
- Joseph Fielding Smith (President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles)
1954, Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 1, pg 39
