[Joseph F. Smith speaking:] He said it [i.e., plural marriage] was taken away from the people' like the law of consecration'because the saints rejected it, and neither would be restored until there is a people prepared to live them. Anyone should beware that casts slurs upon the birth of those born under this covenant. Also that man who will not appreciate their wives and children and provide for them will lose them.
[William H. Smart, Diary, as quoted in Minutes of the Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1835-1951, Electronic Edition, 2015]
