Famous quotes containing the words inspection, patient and/or standing:

    Thus the orb he roamed
    With narrow search, and with inspection deep
    Considered every creature, which of all
    Most opportune might serve his wiles, and found
    The serpent subtlest beast of all the field.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    I am a patient man—always willing to forgive on the Christian terms of repentance; and also to give ample time for repentance.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    The chimney is to some extent an independent structure, standing on the ground, and rising through the house to the heavens; even after the house is burned it still stands sometimes, and its importance and independence are apparent.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
