Patient Presents

Famous quotes containing the words patient and/or presents:

    One who cannot be patient for a moment will have days and months of trouble.
    Chinese proverb.

    Realism, whether it be socialist or not, falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
