the Chinese do the same thing with well known sayings, and yes, I have learned Chinese.

As someone with an incomplete mind (as you put it), please explain why knowing Chinese has anything to do with lds.

It was a reference to the practice of saying the first line of something to invoke the whole passage, the Chinese do that too. The reference is not doctrinally significant, just interesting, to me at least.
