"Patience is the support of weakness; impatience the ruin of strength." ― Charles Caleb Colton Topic(s): Patience More From Charles Caleb Colton "Bigotry murders religion to frighten fools with her ghost." "Ladies of Fashion starve their happiness to feed their vanity, and their love to feed their pride." "The society of dead authors has this advantage over that of the living: they never flatter us to our faces, nor slander us behind our backs, nor intrude upon our privacy, nor quit their shelves until we take them down." More In Patience "Difficult years lie ahead, patience is required."― Yiannis Stournaras "As for goals, I don’t set myself those anymore. I’m not one of these ‘I must have achieved this and that by next year’ kind of writers. I take things as they come and find that patience and persistence tend to win out in the end."― Paul Kane "Do you like my suit? I think this is an amazing suit, don’t you think?"― Tom Selleck
