"Joseph Smith and Brigham Young... were not called to be the only ones to labor in building up that great and glorious Zion... nor their counselors; nor the Twelve Apostles; but this responsibility rests upon every one of the Lord's anointed upon the face of the earth, I do not care who they are, whether male or female, and the Lord will require this at the hands of all the Latter-day Saints." - Brigham Young, 4/17/1870
