“The thing about patience, I mean real patience, is that it is most needed when there is something you really want to see happen. That’s patience.”

“Real patience is not the same as waiting impatiently for something for a long time. Patience is having patience with patience.”

“Patience slows down time and more can happen when time is slowed down. That’s the secret of patience.”

“Patience is waiting. Not passively waiting. That is laziness. But to keep going when the going is hard and slow - that is patience. The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.”

“You can’t really have patience. You can be patient – if that’s what’s up for you.”

“You have to plant doubt […] It’s like planting a seed that takes time to germinate. It might look like nothing is happening, but then suddenly the doubt will flower into some kind of action […] Patience is what is needed. People need to hear the truth, not just once but again and again. That’s what the politics of change is all about, patience and repetition, until the truth sinks in.”
