"Patience is the companion of wisdom...." - Quote by Saint Augustine

“We both exist and know that we exist, and rejoice in this knowledge.”

“Go forth on your path, as it exists only through your walking.”

“It is human to err, but it is devilish to remain willfully in error.”

“Look me in the eye. It’s ok if you’re scared. So am I. But we are scared for different reasons. I am scared of what I won’t become. And you are scared of what I could become. Look at me. I won’t let myself end where I started. I won’t let myself finish where I began. I know what is within me, even if you can’t see it yet. Look me in the eyes. I have something more important than courage. I have patience. I will become what I know I am.”

“all pleasures should be taken in great leisure and are worth going into in detail; love is not like eating a quick lunch with one's hat on.”

“Patience is so like fortitude that she seems either her sister or her daughter.”

“The only palliative is to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds, and this can be done only by reading old books.”

“Every man's Reason is sufficient for his guidance, if used.”

“He was so learned that he could name a horse in nine languages; so ignorant that he bought a cow to ride on.”
