“Patience is the most necessary quality for business, many a man would rather you heard his story than grant his request.”
Lord Chesterfield
“There is no road too long to the man who advances deliberately and without undue haste; there are no honors too distant to the man who prepares himself for them with patience.”
Jean de la Bruyere
“Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.”
Winnie the Pooh
“Generosity is another quality which, like patience, letting go, non-judging, and trust, provides a solid foundation for mindfulness practice. You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity as a vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise in giving. A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can give yourself gifts that may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, or some time each day with no purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough to accept these gifts without obligation-to simply receive from yourself, and from the universe.”
Jon Kabat-Zinn
“The chemist who can extract from his heart's elements compassion, respect, longing, patience, regret, surprise, and forgiveness and compound them into one can create that atom which is called love.”
Kahlil Gibran
“Patience is the courage of the conqueror, the strength of man against destiny”
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
“But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness (1 Timothy 6:11).”
