Toni, from A Daily Dose of Toni has this great weekly ritual of posting Favorite Quotes – the quotes that people come up with are very inspiring, so if you haven’t had a chance to check out Quotable Sunday, now’s your chance! 😉 This week I have chosen quotes about ‘Patience’ – this past week has been a test on my patience level, so I thought them quite appropriate:
“He that can have patience can have what he will.” Benjamin Franklin
“If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.” Chinese Proverb
“All things come to him who waits – provided he knows what he is waiting for.” Woodrow T. Wilson
“Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily.” Johann Friedrich von Schiller
“Patience and fortitude conquer all things.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Have patience with all things, but first of all with yourself.” St. Francis de Sales
“Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.” John Quincy Adams
“Trying to understand is like straining through muddy water. Be still and allow the mud to settle.” Lao Tzu
“Genius is eternal patience.” Michelangelo
“Patience and tenacity of purpose are worth more than twice their weight of cleverness.” Thomas Henry Huxley
“Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therin to be content.” Helen Keller
My sincere apologies to the participants last week – I only got a chance to visit a few of you…but I’m going to make time today to visit everyone to make up for last week! 🙂 I’m looking forward to all the wonderful quotes again today! 🙂

I have a hard time with this one:
“Have patience with all things, but first of all with yourself.” St. Francis de Sales
I tend to be so hard on myself. You always have awesome quotes!!!
AWSOME quotes!!! Patiance is one thing I do not have!!
What is this “patience” you speak of…
I really like this one: “Trying to understand is like straining through muddy water. Be still and allow the mud to settle.” Lao Tzu
That’s a hard one to follow through on.
I love the Chinese proverb. Great “subject” to quote on today. Patience is something not a lot have but more definitely need.
This is the truth!
“If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.” Chinese Proverb

“Have patience with all things, but first of all with yourself.” St. Francis de Sales…I need to take that advice to heart. I’m my own worst enemy.
I always thought I had a lot of patience and then I had children! I love “Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily.” Thanks for the great quotes!
Awesome quotes as always 🙂
As always, Stacy, you have awesome quotes. Have a great Sunday.
