Little Bird if you do not sing for me, I will wait for you.
Find fault with thyself rather than with others.
Persuade thyself that imperfection and inconvenience are the natural lot of mortals, and there will be no room for discontent, neither for despair.
There are seven emotions: joy, anger, anxiety, adoration, grief, fear, and hate, and if a man does not give way to these he can be called patient.
Life is like unto a long journey with a heavy burden.
To come to know your enemy, first you must become his friend, and once you become his friend, all his defences come down. Then you can choose the most fitting method for his demise.
The strong manly ones in life are those who understand the meaning of the word patience.
Patience is the key to any battle.
After victory, tighten the cords of your helmet.
Give the peasants neither life nor death.
When ambitious desires arise in thy heart, recall the days of extremity thou have passed through. Forbearance is the root of all quietness and assurance forever.
Life means that I can live to see tomorrow.
Let thy step be slow and steady, that thou stumble not.
Remember, slow and steady wins the race.
Forbearance is the root of quietness and assurance forever.
Patience means restraining one’s inclinations.
