Patient Note

Famous quotes containing the words patient and/or note:

    One who cannot be patient for a moment will have days and months of trouble.
    Chinese proverb.

    And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
    Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
    With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
    On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
    And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
