Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. – Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Every man has the right to risk his own life in order to preserve it. Has it ever been said that a man who throws himself out the window to escape from a fire is guilty of suicide? – Jean-Jacques Rousseau
The world of reality has its limits the world of imagination is boundless. – Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Money is the seed of money, and the first guinea is sometimes more difficult to acquire than the second million. – Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Patience is better than wisdom: an ounce of patience is worth a pound of brains. All men praise patience, but few enough can practise it; it is a medicine which is good for all diseases, and therefore every old woman recommends it; but it is not every garden that grows the herbs to make it with. – Charles H. Spurgeon (1834–1892), “On Patience” (John Ploughman)
Ive always had a huge fear of dying or becoming ill. The thing Im most afraid of, though, is being alone, which I think a lot of performers fear. Its why we seek the limelight – so were not alone, were adored. Were loved, so people want to be around us. The fear of being alone drives my life. – Jennifer Lopez
