“When he was killed, I would have liked to have died myself, if it had not been for the teachers, I felt so bad. I could have died, just laid down and died; and I was sick abed, and the teachers told me, ‘You don’t want to die because he did. He died for us, and now we all want to live and do all the good we can.’”
– Jane Manning James (1822-1908), on the martyrdom of Joseph Smith, quoted in The Witness of Women, by Janiece Johnson and Jennifer Reeder
