"Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished." — Lao Tzu

"Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet." — Jean-Jacques Rousseau

"Patience is not passive, on the contrary, it is concentrated strength." — Bruce Lee

"All human wisdom is summed up in two words – wait and hope." — Alexandre Dumas

"Trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit." — Molière

"Patience is the companion of wisdom." — Saint Augustine

"Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish." — John Quincy Adams






* Sun Tzu did not say the quote in the title, but it sounds like something he would say. He did say, "He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious." As fans, we must acknowledge that there is nothing we can do at this moment to hurry the hiring process. Patience.

To answer your question, I can grow watermelons on the vine from seed to eat in like 3 months, give or take.

Citrus and peaches are some of the shorter ones I believe and those are the best. The quote is nonsensical if taken literally

This is genuinely so fricking funny that you attributed a quote to him that he didn’t say.

So you've never had the patience to wait for the trees.

Good luck with your craptastic watermelons off the vine.
