Ecclesiastes 7:8 "The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride." (NIV)
"Take your needle, my child, and work at your pattern; it will come out a rose by and by." Life is like that; one stitch at a time taken patiently, and the pattern will come out all right like embroidery."
Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894)
