Patriotism is usually stronger than class hatred and always stronger than internationalism.

Patience has never been my strong suit.

The strong manly ones in life are those who understand the meaning of the word patience.

Patience was not my strong point.

I think you can judge from somebody's actions a kind of a stability and sense of purpose perhaps created by strong religious roots. I mean there's a certain patience a certain discipline I think that religion helps you achieve.

Affliction is the wholesome soil of virtue where patience honor sweet humility and calm fortitude take root and strongly flourish.

I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection.

Philosophy would render us entirely Pyrrhonian were not nature too strong for it.

No tendency is quite so strong in human nature as the desire to lay down rules of conduct for other people.

It is the nature and the advantage of strong people that they can bring out the crucial questions and form a clear opinion about them. The weak always have to decide between alternatives that are not their own.

To destroy is still the strongest instinct in nature.

A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body it gives boldness enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.

Nature is so powerful so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.

Solitary trees if they grow at all grow strong.

Music and silence combine strongly because music is done with silence and silence is full of music.

Music is the strongest form of magic.

I do like strong women in my movies. I have five sisters so I've just grown up with that model.

I rarely see one of the 'summer blockbuster' movies. I'd like to see a stronger focus on smaller smarter movies.

Another very strong image from the first day was giving my initial press conference in the morning - going down and finding out that everything I had said the essence of what I had said was wrong.

I'd always been a news junkie always read lots of newspapers and watched the Sunday morning news shows on TV and felt strongly about issues of power control sexuality and race.

You know I looked at my face in the mirror this morning and I like being old. My face has more content and when I train in the gym now I am not training to be strong or handsome - just better than I was yesterday. These days the race is just against myself.

If I feel strongly I say it. I know I can do more good by being vocal than by staying quiet. I'd have a whole lot more money if I lied but I wouldn't enjoy spending it.

The strongest bank in the United States will last only so long as the people will have sufficient confidence in it to keep their money there.
