“What may not be altered is made lighter by patience.”

“Come what may, all bad fortune is to be conquered by endurance.”

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”

“The very important thing you should have is patience.”

“Rule your mind or it will rule you.”

“Be modest in speech, but excel in action.”

“Carpe diem! Rejoice while you are alive; enjoy the day; live life to the fullest; make the most of what you have. It is later than you think.”
