“Impatience is a particularly dangerous habit of the heart because everything worthwhile takes time. Good marriages take time. Spiritual maturity takes time. Financial stability takes time. Effective ministry takes time. Wisdom takes time. People who are not willing to take time cannot have any of the above.”
― Jim Berg, Created for His Glory

“Patience is supported & nurtured by a quality of forgiveness.”
― Allan Lokos, Patience: The Art of Peaceful Living

“The work that God does in us when we wait is usually more important than the thing for which we wait!”
― Erwin W. Lutzer, When You've Been Wronged: Moving From Bitterness to Forgiveness

“Not all Muslims become involved in acts of violence. Yet all might be held culpable. THis is because that section of Muslim--in fact, the majority--who are not personally involved, neither disown those members of their community who are engaged in violence, nor even condemn them. In such a case, according to the Islamic Shariah itself, if the involved Muslims are directly responsible, the uninvolved Muslims are also indirectly responsible. (p. 91)”
― Wahiduddin Khan, The True Jihad: The Concept of Peace, Tolerance and Non Violence in Islam
