All great achievements require time.
A constant struggle, a ceaseless battle to bring success from inhospitable surroundings, is the price of all great achievements.
It is not the clear-sighted who rule the world. Great achievements are accomplished in a blessed, warm fog.
The world runs on individuals pursuing their self interests. The great achievements of civilization have not come from government bureaus. Einstein didn't construct his theory under order from a, from a bureaucrat. Henry Ford didn't revolutionize the automobile industry that way.
Death comes to all, but great achievements build a monument which shall endure until the sun grows cold.
