Patience quote

The gods have given unyielding patience as a medicine for incurable evils.

ARCHILOCHUS

attributed, Day's Collacon


Patience is like acceptance. One cannot push the natural unfolding of experience and change. Patience involves opening up to experience in every moment as it arises and giving our minds the space to be aware of the experience.

MALCOLM HUXTER

Remedies for Positive Living


Patience is the ability to maintain self-control over the impulse that rises suddenly when something disagreeable happens. It is not just disregard of or indifference to life's daily irritations or upsetting incidents--it's a real control of self, of one's feelings and impulses.

Patience has tender feet.

AUSTIN O'MALLEY

Keystones of Thought


The wisdom and the theory of patience are very simple; for patience is a pure quiet; but impatience is a strong emotion, and therefore something that has to be borne or carried. Now, if we have a burden to lift, and add thereto impatience, what do we but add weight to weight?

Inner peace is impossible without patience. Wisdom requires patience. Spiritual growth implies the mastery of patience. Patience allows the unfolding of destiny to proceed at its own unhurried pace.

BRIAN L. WEISS

Muchas Vidas, Muchas Maestros


He who wanteth patience in this world is like a man who standeth trembling in the field without his armor, because every one can strike him, and he can strike none: so the least push of pain, or loss or disgrace, doth trouble that man more which hath not the skill to suffer than twenty trials can move him which is armed with patience, like a golden shield in his hand, to break the stroke of every cross, and save the heart though the body suffer; for, while the heart is whole, all is well.

HENRY SMITH

attributed, Six Thousand Illustrations of Moral and Religious Truths


I hate patience. Slows everything down.
