Determination, patience and courage are the only things needed to improve any situation. And, if you want a situation changed badly enough, you will find these three things.

Amongst the qualities a hero should have, I would include determination, loyalty, courage, perseverance, patience, focus, intrepidity and selflessness.

Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.

I am very happy. My patience and perseverance have finally paid off.

Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

Patience brings perseverance.
