Live in thy shame, but die not shame with thee!
Time and the hour runs through the roughest day.
Though patience be a tired mare, yet she will plod.
The worst is not so long as we can say “This is the worst.”
The men who learn endurance, are they who call the whole world, brother.
The course of true love never did run smooth.
Prolonged endurance tames the bold.
Patience is sottish, and impatience does become a dog that’s mad.
Patch grief with proverbs; make misfortune drunk with candle-wasters; bring him yet to me, and I of him will gather patience.
Nothing endures but personal qualities.
No, I’ll not weep: I have full cause of weeping; but this heart Shall break into a hundred thousand flaws, Or ere I’ll weep.
No, I will be the pattern of all patience; I will say nothing.
