Overnight success stories take a long time.

Never rush an emotion; everything in life has a rhythm, it is the pauses and silences that speak the truth.

The greatest prayer is patience.

The cuckoos remain silent for a long time (for several seasons) until they are able to sing sweetly (in the Spring) so as to give joy to all.

Without patience, we will learn less in life. We will see less. We will feel less. We will hear less. Ironically, rush and more usually mean less.

To lose patience is to lose the battle.
