Impatience never commanded success.
Edwin H. ChapinLabels: success
And beauty is a form of genius -- is higher, indeed, than genius, as it needs no explanation. It is of the great facts of the world, like sunlight, or spring-time, or the reflection in dark waters of that silver shell we call the moon. It cannot be questioned. It has its divine right of sovereignty. It makes princes of those who have it.

CiceroLabels: success
The significance of a man is not in what he attains but in what he longs to attain.
