Waiting
All things come to him who waits, but they come faster if he meets them halfway. - Evan Esar
He who knows how to wait for what he desires does not feel very desperate if he fails in obtaining it; and he, on the contrary, who is very impatient in procuring a certain thing, takes so much pains about it, that, even when he is successful, he does not think himself sufficiently rewarded. - Jean de la Bruyere
It is very strange that the years teach us patience – that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting. - Elizabeth Taylor
Misfortune always comes to those who wait. The trick is to find happiness in the brief gaps between disasters. - Christopher Paolini
Waiting is a means of acquiring patience. - Adrian Thatcher
Waiting is just the period of time right before action! - Jennifer J. Weiss
Waiting is the rust of the soul. - Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Waiting was a sin against both the time that was still to come and the moments one was currently disregarding. - Neil Gaiman
We are not born to wait. We are born to do. - Dean Koontz
When you are waiting for a train, don't keep perpetually looking to see if it is coming. The time of its arrival is the business of the conductor, not yours. It will not come any sooner for all your nervous glances and your impatient pacing, and you will save strength if you will keep quiet. After we discover that the people who sit still on a long railroad journey reach that journey's end at precisely the same time as those who "fuss" continually, we have a valuable piece of information which we should not fail to put to practical use. - Anna C. Brackett
