Things never change in football, it’s still blocking and tackling and execution, and having an experienced quarterback who is patient enough to take what the defense gives him.
George Blanda
If you’re going to invest in something over a long period of time, that you believe is important and can change the company, you have to be strategically patient and tactically impatient.
Andy Jassy
In our tabulation of psychoanalytic results, we have classed those who stopped treatment together with those not improved. This appears to be reasonable; a patient who fails to finish his treatment, and is not improved, is surely a therapeutic failure.
Hans Eysenck
Computers are really patient. They can sit there all day. It’s a totally different situation dealing with humans. They can be tired or overly excited.
GRiZ

Kelis
Cancer is a disease where the patient can contribute a great deal of help himself if he or she can retain their morale and their hopes.

Vivek Murthy
President Obama has argued there isn’t a threat of terrorism from the U.S. refugee program because for individuals who apply it takes two years, ‘heavy vetting’ and is a relatively long process. It doesn’t matter. Jihad is patient, and as ISIS has pledged, it will do whatever it takes to get the job done.
Katie Pavlich
I have been very successful in handling people who hurl abuse simply by being patient. Ignoring them is the best policy because afterwards, it’s the fans that criticise these so-called celebrities for their bad conduct.

Daniela Hantuchova
As far as I’m concerned, the more power we push back to the patient, the individual, the American citizen, the more responsive the system is to her needs. ‘Obamacare,is responsive’ is like a hammer is responsive to a piece of glass.
Bill Cassidy
Motherhood hasn’t changed me much but the only difference I feel is that I have become more patient.
Kashmira Shah
I have acute myeloid leukemia, an aggressive type of cancer. The typical prognosis is 3-6 months to live, but I would like to stress that is for a patient who is not receiving treatment.

Liberty Hyde Bailey

Anna Benson
Ventilators are life-saving tools in the fight against COVID-19. They are durable medical devices intended to control or assist a critically ill patient’s breathing by mechanically delivering them a predetermined percentage of oxygen.

Polo G
Thanks to the digital and big data revolution, we can start to do what was previously unthinkable – to improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs while delivering personalized care to each individual.

Bernie Siegel
Obviously it’s always hard when you tell a patient you can’t help them, because maybe it’s a physical constraint with the surgery, but in regards to telling a patient that they’re not realistic and they’re not appropriate psychological candidates, we’re pretty used to it.
Paul Nassif
Keep your head up and be patient.
A. J. McLean

Simon Cowell
In Turkey, you’re not allowed to be left alone in the hospital. The nurse teaches the family how to do things, and somebody is always there with the patient.
Mehmet Oz
I was destined to work with dying patients. I had no choice when I encountered my first AIDS patient. I felt called to travel some 250,000 miles each year to hold workshops that helped people cope with the most painful aspects of life, death and the transition between the two.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
We know that if you just were to take the drugs that you were supposed to take for diabetes or hypertension, just take it, as opposed to not take it, we could save $7,000, $3,000 per patient per year.
Patrick Soon-Shiong

Allyson Felix
There are a lot of people who approached me after ‘Dangal’ and ‘Stree’ to do films in lead roles with great money. But I don’t want to rush into it. I want you to call me with a happy face that the film is rocking… And that will only happen if I make wise and patient decisions.
Aparshakti Khurana
The key is to cut out the middleman and empower both doctor and patient with information about what things cost.
Ben Carson

Mark Fisher
No one teaches you how to think about money in medical school or residency. Yet, from the moment you start practicing, you must think about it. You must consider what is covered for a patient and what is not.

Rasheed Wallace
You have to be patient in the Premier League.

Anupriya Goenka
I still find the best way to understand a hospitalized patient whose care I am taking over is not by staring at the computer screen but by going to see the patient; it’s only at the bedside that I can figure out what is important.
Abraham Verghese
I have sat with countless patients and families to discuss grim prognoses: It’s one of the most important jobs physicians have. It’s easier when the patient is 94, in the last stages of dementia, and has a severe brain bleed. For young people like me – I am 36 – given a diagnosis of cancer, there aren’t many words.
Paul Kalanithi
You really do learn every day with every dog; they are all so unique and different. But if you’re patient and you understand where they’re coming from, and if you are consistent, they will be fine. They teach you to give your full attention.
Emmylou Harris
Everything you do in a patient’s room, after he is ‘put up’ for the night, increases tenfold the risk of his having a bad night. But, if you rouse him up after he has fallen asleep, you do not risk – you secure him a bad night.

I just have to try to be patient, keep working hard and doing my best.
Ryan Babel

Steve Scalise
There is something good in all seeming failures. You are not to see that now. Time will reveal it. Be patient.

Sana Khan
There’s a crazy, false notion that audiences are not patient or will not watch a story, that you have to put in a scare every ten minutes. But I always thought that was insane.
Eli Roth
My best friend in medical school was a magician. And we were shown an X-ray of a sword-swallower, and I tried it and failed. Then I got a sword-swallower as a patient, and he taught me.

It is so hard to be patient and wait for the right script to come your way.

Nineteen percent of doctors say that they’d be able to give their patients a lethal injection. But they also went on to say that the patient would have to be really, really behind on payments.
Jay Leno
The goal of embodying Christian ethics – if you want to call yourself a Christian – is being patient and loving with your neighbor.

I’m doing my best to be mindful about how I’m living: to be kind and patient, and not to impose a bad mood on somebody else. Being mindful is as good a way to be spiritual as anything else.

I can’t speak on anybody else’s free agencies, how that’s going, but for myself, it helps to kind of be patient and let it happen.

Pat Gillick
In the book the relationship with Katharine and Almasy is sort of only in the patient’s mind.
Michael Ondaatje

Robert Jarvik
In my opinion, the root cause of all Arsenal’s problems is that Arsene Wenger is just too nice. He’s too nice, too patient and too accommodating, and that has been Arsenal’s undoing.
Jermaine Jenas
If a person is treated like a patient, they are apt to act like one.
Frances Farmer
Listen, wait, and be patient. Every shaman knows you have to deal with the fire that’s in your audience’s eye.

Historically, I’m not a great patient when it comes to slowing down.
Michael Keaton

I learned patience. I’m not a real patient guy, but with me trusting in my coach, my managers and my team, I just trust the process and just continue to stay patient and just follow suit.
Terence Crawford
In terms of establishing a connection between a therapist and a patient, that work needs to be done in person.
Drew Pinsky
I’ve been called Mr. Patient Money because I have the patience to work through challenging circumstances.
N. Murray Edwards
A physician is not angry at the intemperance of a mad patient, nor does he take it ill to be railed at by a man in fever. Just so should a wise man treat all mankind, as a physician does his patient, and look upon them only as sick and extravagant.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
In finding love, I think it’s important to be patient. In being in a relationship, I think it’s important to be honest, to communicate, to respect and trust, and to strive to give more than you take.

Continuity is a great thing; staying the course and being patient, those are important virtues. But also there is virtue in being realistic enough to know you have to make serious changes sometimes.
Jim Irsay
My kids seem to be more mature and older than I am now somehow. They’ve gotten ahead of me somehow. But they’re very patient with me.
Jerry Garcia
Change is a continuous process. You cannot assess it with the static yardstick of a limited time frame. When a seed is sown into the ground, you cannot immediately see the plant. You have to be patient. With time, it grows into a large tree. And then the flowers bloom, and only then can the fruits be plucked.
Mamata Banerjee
When I wasn’t playing, the most important thing was to stay patient.
Antoine Griezmann

Victor Cherbuliez
When my job isn’t performing in a WWE ring, my job is to get back performing in that ring. When I’m hurt, all I have to do all day is get strong and get better. I’m a very dedicated physical therapy patient, and that helps a lot.
John Cena
The girls and women of our race must not be afraid to take hold of business endeavor and, by patient industry, close economy, determined effort and close application to business, wring success out of a number of business opportunities that lie at their very doors.
Madam C. J. Walker
One of the most stubborn barriers to patient empowerment is the cultural assumption that since the way professionals learned was hard, you must need to be really smart, and you need to be taught in a carefully thought out, methodical sequence.
Dave deBronkart
You’ve never heard of an English lover. Only an English patient.
James D. Watson

Jason Kidd
Cricket is not rocket science. Bowlers often get wickets through perseverance, accuracy and being patient rather than trying to blast opposition teams out.
Andrew Strauss
I’m not a fast writer at all. I come empty and wait upon the Lord. So it really is all a waiting process, a patient process.
Ann Voskamp
Every day Black women are subjected to harsh and racist treatment during pregnancy and childbirth. Every day Black women die because the system denies our humanity. It denies us patient care.

But since I did my first film with Shammi Kapoor ji, he is my favourite. I was very shy to face the camera. In my first few shots with Shammi chacha, I was very nervous. He was very patient with me and guided me in every shot.
Asha Parekh
Those weeks before diagnosis can be among the most torturous times. There is a reason you’re called a patient once the plastic bracelet goes on.

Rachel Riley
I’m really lucky that my record companies have been patient with me and leave me alone and give me the time to make it right in my mind.

Jack Kevorkian
To put up with me, you have to be patient.
Greg Rutherford
As great a public speaker as I am, I don’t know have – I don’t – I don’t have the words to describe Cub fans who welcomed me as a rookie, were patient through my 1-for-32 start, and took me into their homes and into their hearts and treated me like a member of their family. You picked me up when I was down.
Ryne Sandberg
Have you ever thought that war is a madhouse and that everyone in the war is a patient?
Oriana Fallaci
It’s not all about strength, there is so much more involved, getting the horse into a rhythm, getting the horse to try for you, it’s being patient and I’m so glad to win Melbourne Cup and hopefully, it will help female jockeys from now on to get more of a go.
Michelle Payne

Jamie Carragher
In any operation, what you have to do is to persuade the patient to grant access to the patient’s energy. The purest form of that is when you’re trying to help a woman through labor: when you’re saying, ‘Push, push!’ and you’re rhythmically with the woman.
David Milch
Before operating on a patient’s brain… I must first understand his mind: his identity, his values, what makes his life worth living, and what devastation makes it reasonable to let that life end.
Paul Kalanithi
I’m so used to doing stuff, as you can imagine, fast and on the go, and just calming down, being patient for me is something I have yet to get used to.

Paul G. Tremblay
To really be conscious of how long the journey is, be patient, push yourself, persevere, and always be working on your craft while waiting for your break. That’s what I’m still working on, having done this for 20 years now.

Christopher Hitchens
I’m not someone who’s endlessly patient and wonderful.

Ranveer Brar
Let’s make the best use of technology to work for patient safety as well as to fight the rising problem of non-communicable diseases, a big challenge to our country and the world.
Tamilisai Soundararajan
I advocate for a totally new view of the role of the patient: patient as engaged partner, not passive recipient.
Dave deBronkart
Imagine someone who has had a heart attack on the street, and they are picked up by an ambulance with 5G connectivity, hi-definition scanners, and cameras… You start taking a scan in the ambulance so all of that data is transferred to the surgery before the patient arrives, and a diagnosis is already underway.
Rajeev Suri
The beauty of mathematics only shows itself to more patient followers.
Maryam Mirzakhani
My mother wasn’t a very patient woman. If I complained about being lonely or bored, she’d tell me to go help someone, anyone. To this day, when I start feeling sorry for myself, I look for a good deed to do.
Donna Brazile
The bottom line: health care reform is about the patient, not about the physician.
Abraham Verghese
We see healthcare shifting from a procedure reimbursement, where in this country doctors are reimbursed for how many procedures they conduct, to a world where people will be reimbursed for the outcomes – did the patient actually get better, and what was the total cost of the cycle of care.

I’m not that patient sometimes. I’m like a rocket – I go a hundred miles per hour.
Heidi Klum
The baby boom is about to become a patient boom.
Dalton McGuinty
My teacher, my great cello teacher Leonard Rose, was such a great cellist, and nurturing man, very patient. But I grew up not only admiring him, but obviously Casals, Rostrotovich, Jacqueline du Pre, and many others, including many of my peers and contemporaries.
Yo-Yo Ma
I consider myself a perpetual student. You seek and learn every day: from an experiment in the lab, from reading a scientific journal, from taking care of a patient. Because of this, I rarely get bored.
Anthony Fauci
When Department of Health and Human Services administrators decided to base 30 percent of hospitals’ Medicare reimbursement on patient satisfaction survey scores, they likely figured that transparency and accountability would improve healthcare.
Alexandra Robbins
I had my nose done four times. I’ve had a little bit of filler before, a little bit of Botox before. So I have been a patient, not in my own hands, obviously.
Paul Nassif
There is no rushing into things and am patient for good roles to come.
Anupama Parameswaran
On ‘Grey’s,’ if you have a bad day as a doctor, you lose a patient. But what’s crazy about ‘Station 19’ is if you have a bad day as a firefighter, the patient dies, or you die, or your partner dies. It’s a whole other level of stakes.
Jason Winston George
I’m very dogged and patient.
Doug Stanton
I don’t really sweat the small stuff at all and I just feel like I’m more patient. It’s probably just a combination of age and being through a bunch of stuff in my life.
Christina Anstead
I’ve made it clear – I’m not patient at all – several times.
Dolph Ziggler
It’s hard to be patient. It’s hard to sit back and actually wait and allow everything – just let it be.

I always believed in my ability. I just had to work hard and be patient and, yeah, at times it didn’t look likely. You need a wee stroke of luck but every chance I’ve been given, I’ve taken.
Andrew Robertson
Brain surgery couldn’t happen without the patient’s own active voice to guide the work. The patient is part of the surgical team here, perhaps the most important part, and above all, that’s what makes neurosurgery different.
Sam Kean
At times you’ve got to be patient, and that’s it. I just take it; another good training week, train hard and train strong, look to perform there and hopefully start at the weekend.
Adam Lallana

The English Patient’ is about the coming together of a French-Canadian nurse, an English patient, a Sikh in a turban and me, Caravaggio, and each of us is seeking a resolution to our own problems.
Willem Dafoe
A lot of people body shame me because I am very thin. They say I have a ‘boy’s body,’ or that I look like a skeleton or like a runaway patient. People can never be happy, so you just have to be happy with your body and how you are.
Ananya Panday
In my business, if I get too close to you and you die, it hurts me. And so you develop a natural inclination not to be close to the patient, so that if things don’t work out ideally, you can still get up the next day and care for the next patient.
Mehmet Oz
In November, 1964 when I was a patient at the Mayo Clinic I though seriously about killing myself.
Jerry Kramer
No matter how the Supreme Court rules on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, states are making progress in developing strategies to provide more access to quality health care coverage.
John Hickenlooper
We’ve been very patient over the years but this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reset the rules for the River Murray and we’re determined not to squander that opportunity.
Jay Weatherill
Be patient. Patience is the mother of all virtues.
Hrithik Roshan
I have a great dad myself and I hope to be as patient and understanding as he was with me when I was growing up.
Carey Price
If there is one thing for which the ‘Real Housewives’ franchise deserves artistic recognition, it is the patient and immaculate building of a villain.
Andrea Seigel
You have to be patient: trust the team, that they can deliver a good job.
Max Verstappen
I urge you children to be patient with your parents. If they seem to be out of touch on such vital issues as dating, clothing styles, modern music, and use of family cars, listen to them anyway. They have the experience that you lack.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
The only requirement of a fan or a patient is the surrender to authority.
David Shields
Sometimes the Knicks just need to be the Knicks. And not the New York Knicks. What I mean by that is that they’re New York’s team and everybody is going to be focused on that. But they should learn to pace themselves, set goals and be patient with what they’re doing.
Baron Davis
God bless those employees at United who somehow continue to be gracious and patient and generous with customers even while bearing the brunt of a broken company themselves.
Patrick Lencioni
Two minutes later the right arm was pointing normally and the reaction to the left appeared. The patient made no complaint at all about the experiment.
Robert Barany
Thanks to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, preventive care services, including contraception, will be covered by private insurance plans without co-pays or deductibles.
Sandra Fluke
For the record, I believe that women and their doctors should have access to oral contraception when desired by the patient and medically appropriate.
Ami Bera
As Christians we need to be patient, understanding, and kind. Instead of going on the attack, we can ask genuine questions. Instead of bristling when our narrative is summarily dismissed, we can carefully explain our way of seeing things. And when we are wrong, we won’t be afraid to say so.
Kevin DeYoung
Fatherhood has changed me, I’ve become more patient.
Sourav Ganguly
A disciplined, patient, defensive period in a Test match is not old fashioned and boring – it’s essential.
Jonathan Agnew
The physicians of one class feel the patients and go away, merely prescribing medicine. As they leave the room they simply ask the patient to take the medicine. They are the poorest class of physicians.
Ramakrishna
If there is a moment when it is possible to intervene in the chaotic life of a homeless person, it is when they turn up as an NHS patient.
Grant Shapps
Beware the fury of a patient man.
John Dryden
Minimally invasive surgery is the way forward: the patient goes home the next day; there are fewer complications.
Frans van Houten
If I wasn’t a writer, I would probably be a watchmaker. I like putting puzzles together, and that is what a watch is, figuring out how all the gears and everything else works together. I’m patient and good at focusing on a single task.
Karin Slaughter
Sometimes you have to wait. Sometimes you have to be patient, and your chances will come.
Kieran Trippier
Older fatherhood isn’t all bad: testosterone rates drop about 1% per year as men age, making them less reactive and more patient, and a professionally established middle-aged man is likely to have more time and money to devote to his kids than a twenty-something who’s just getting started.
Jeffrey Kluger
As medical data has such power to deliver better understanding of disease and better patient outcomes, it is important we find the best way of sharing it.
Mark Walport
I spent my 20s working in patient care at a large university hospital, an experience that has informed all my work and has given me a lot of human observation to draw on.
Lois McMaster Bujold
He was a patient man, a kind man, a man who cared about animals and human beings, all qualities not to be devalued, but James Herriot was not a saint. I tried so hard to play against some of the scripts that implied that he was a saint, but I don’t think I was always altogether successful.
Christopher Timothy
We have used the Bible as if it were a mere special constable’s handbook, an opium dose for keeping beasts of burden patient while they are overloaded.
Charles Kingsley
In this business, believing in your work, being patient and consistent always pays off.
Sunny Singh
My body was torn apart by an enemy hand grenade… upon arriving at Camp Bastion, I was labeled P.E.A. – patient expired on arrival. I flat-lined at Walter Reed.
Kyle Carpenter
It’s unnatural to believe death usually has a beauty and a concordance and is usually a coming together of your life’s work. It leads to frustration for the patient. And it leaves grieving families convinced they did something wrong.
Sherwin B. Nuland
A person being patient with an insane person is my favorite thing in the world.
Bill Hader
We’ve had Obama for eight years, who, to me, is a model of integrity, sensitivity, empathy. He’s wise, he’s patient, he maintains his composure, and I would have voted for him again.
Max Joseph
I’m not the most patient of people.
Kobe Bryant
Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.
Charles William Eliot
Here’s where the insurance companies really fail us. They over-pay hospitals, specialists and drug companies and then raise premiums to cover the costs. Further, when they pay hospitals 115% of what it should cost to care for a patient, they are paying for inefficiency that can be dangerous.
Alex Gibney
It is much more important to know what sort of a patient has a disease than what sort of a disease a patient has.
William Osler
I’m not a patient person and sitting around the house waiting to get back to WWE does me no good.
Michelle McCool
Ultimately, health care fails the most basic test. It’s not organized around the needs of the patient.
Michael Porter
I am an attacking batsman, but I’ve learned a lot about patience. There are clever bowlers who can pick your weak points, so I have to be a bit patient, play out a spell or two.
Prithvi Shaw
Read enough about the dung beetle, and a picture of its character emerges: patient, optimistic, uncomplaining.
Elif Batuman
Anybody can be fit. But you have to be patient. Give your body some time to adjust.
Sean Faris
The research indicates that when we women invest, we women do tend to be more patient, take a longer-term perspective and as a result of it, tend to be better investors than men. But the messages we get are that investing is sort of ‘the guys’ world.’
Sallie Krawcheck
You have to believe in a placebo or it won’t work, but if it works, it’s obviously working in some indirect way, through feedback in the immune system, let us say, or in the willpower of the patient to take a more strenuous exercise in their own therapy.
Charles Jencks
The forgiveness that comes of patient interpretation seems impossible when those nearest to your heart are threatened.
Giles Foden
People are not patient anymore.
Antonio Banderas
Beware the wrath of a patient adversary.
John C. Calhoun
I sing everywhere. I have a very patient husband. He says he doesn’t mind. But we’ve only been married a year and a half!
Anne Hathaway
Whether it’s a mom worrying about affording insulin for her children or a cancer patient fearing bankruptcy due the price of his life-saving medications, the number one issue Kansans talk to me about is the cost of health care and prescription drugs.
Sharice Davids
Any patient who has a serious illness requiring multiple doctors understands the frustration of lost medical charts, repeated procedures, or having to share the same information over and over with different doctors and nurses.
Sheldon Whitehouse
Whether it’s possible or not, being a doctor, you take an oath. To care for your patient, not to kill them. You take an oath to do things that are proper in the medical world. Not to administer something outside of a hospital setting that’s not even your area.
Jermaine Jackson
This is Test cricket. Being positive is not far away from being reckless. For all that the sport has become more fast-flowing and entertaining, you still need batsmen whose first instinct is to be patient.
Jonathan Agnew
I am the model middle child. I am patient and I like to take care of everyone. Being called nice is a compliment. It’s not a boring way to describe me.
Jennifer Garner
Too many radiologists still believe there is a risk from a chest x-ray. Few radiologists can explain radiation to the patient in words the patient can understand.
John Cameron
The patient is not likely to recover who makes the doctor his heir.
Thomas Fuller
I think readers are always patient. Look at the ‘Harry Potter’ series. Some have given up on this generation of kids as game and TV addicts, but lots of people spend lots of time patiently reading through hundreds of pages of dense prose. I think reading a comic by comparison is a lot more immediate.
Dave Gibbons
There are guys you give the benefit of the doubt if they hold you up a little bit longer than normal, and you have that list of guys you kind of know are going to be a problem when you get there. The window of being patient with them is a lot shorter.
Tony Stewart
The Veterans Health Administration is a perfect case study of how government should stay out of patient care altogether.
Mercedes Schlapp
Analysis does not set out to make pathological reactions impossible, but to give the patient’s ego freedom to decide one way or another.
Sigmund Freud
I didn’t stay patient enough at times, maybe.
Doug Pederson
To understand a difficult topic like Iraq takes patience and care. Unfortunately, you rarely hear a patient, careful or thoughtful discussion of intelligence these days.
George Tenet
I’ve always been interested in medicine and was pleased when my brother became a doctor. But after thinking seriously about that field, I realized that what intrigued me was not the science, not the chemistry or biology of medicine, but the narrative – the story of each patient, each illness.
Lois Lowry
Do not meet or overtake a patient who is moving about in order to speak to him or to give him any message or letter. You might just as well give him a box on the ear. I have seen a patient fall flat on the ground who was standing when his nurse came into the room.
Florence Nightingale
When people affected by epilepsy are reluctant to expose their condition, the public remains in the dark about it – a tragic irony that has made patient care and raising funds for research more than challenging.
Lynda Resnick
Narcissist: psychoanalytic term for the person who loves himself more than his analyst; considered to be the manifestation of a dire mental disease whose successful treatment depends on the patient learning to love the analyst more and himself less.
Thomas Szasz
Work harder than everyone, be patient, and just know that if you’re going to do something on your own, you’re gonna have to feel some pain.
Damon Dash
I feel like I’m calmer, I’m kinder, I’m more patient the more I do my own meditation.
Jim Yong Kim
A lot of the guys worry about their form. For me, it is just about being persistent and patient.
Shikhar Dhawan
Every patient tends to bury the most important story inside some other story, just the way new writers often ‘bury the lede.’ ‘Burying the lede’ is an old journalism term for when you only find out the real point about halfway into the article, but it also applies to therapy.
Gina Barreca
It sets its face rightfully against the doctrines of the Anarchist and the Communist, who seek to solve the social problems not by patient endeavor, but by brutal destruction.
Henry Cabot Lodge
One can envisage taking cells from a patient with sickle-cell anaemia or an inherited blood disorder and using the Cas9 system to fix the underlying genetic cause of the disease by putting those cells back into the patient and allowing them to make copies of themselves to support the patient’s blood.
Jennifer Doudna
Wise to resolve, and patient to perform.
Homer
I have to be patient and try to take my opportunity when the boss decides I have to play.
Willy Caballero
For a number of years, I struggled and put distance between God and me. But He was faithful and patient and provided gradual healing and strength.
Clint Dempsey
Be patient and always keep persevering.
Saqib Saleem
When you’re actually boxing, unless it’s a proper grudge match, it’s less about beating the person up and more about being better within yourself. Being patient, timing things, like chess, so really, it’s as much down to you as what the other person does – and that’s life.
Dizzee Rascal
The thing with cancer is that it’s usually the chemo rather than the disease itself that makes the patient feel so ill, particularly at the start.
Amy Hoggart
When you do something that’s a labor of love, where you care about the customers’ trust and putting a product that’s A1 out there, you will be successful, you just have to be patient.
Channing Frye
Success comes but with time. People want to achieve things very quickly; they are not patient.
Dutee Chand
This life is a hospital in which every patient is possessed with a desire to change his bed.
Charles Baudelaire
Stop bragging about your lack of sweat and effort in achieving your goals. Start bragging about how hard you work, how patient you’ve become.
Karen Salmansohn
The most important thing is to stay smart and patient.
Zaza Pachulia
Hearing loss very often is such a gradual phenomenon that the person is in denial. You really have to be patient with them in getting them to come forward to get help.
Marion Ross
Vertigo, it was thought at the time, could only be caused by a disease of the cerebellum. He observed this kind of patient for years and saw absolutely no symptoms of brain disease.
Robert Barany
One of the things that made Epic strong when I wrote the original code was that it never occurred to me to do anything other than put the patient at the center. I developed a clinical system at a time when the health care world had pretty much only billing and lab systems available.
Judith Faulkner
You know what takes effort? Being kind. Being patient. Being respectful.
Jake Tapper
Mourinho helped me grow. He taught me to be patient, to keep fighting, and to respect the coach’s decisions. He helped me mature and turned me into a man.
Kaka
I voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, not because I thought it was the best we could do, but because I thought it was a whole lot better than the current system.
Ron Wyden
Everybody knows that I am not usually patient enough to actually sit down and watch one of my own films from the beginning to the end – I never do.
Abbas Kiarostami
If a patient became sugar-free and blood sugar normal on a basal requirement diet, the caloric intake was gradually increased until sugar appeared in the urine. The tolerance was thus ascertained.
Frederick Banting
The guys I came up with would always tell me that no matter if we’re up or down, if you go in, get in there and play hard. But just know that sometimes you just have to be patient and wait your turn.
Eric Bledsoe
My trainer Jimmy Tibbs and my promoter Frank Warren told me that I had to be patient and get the jab going.
Billy Joe Saunders
And one cannot discharge the duty of loyalty without the patient and an open minded study of the institution that marked the country and defined its character.
Bainbridge Colby
There are three secrets to managing. The first secret is have patience. The second is be patient. And the third most important secret is patience.
Chuck Tanner
I am very patient. I take pride in being patient with my husband, my children, my grandchildren.
Eva Marie Saint
My mother was a lupus patient. I was a child with the lupus gene.
Merry Clayton
To the patient, any operation is momentous.
Joe Murray
If you were to ask me when I was 17 if I was mad because I didn’t have a deal, I would have probably said, ‘Yeah.’ Now I’m so glad I got it when I got it. People tell you to be patient and wait. Patience is not a virtue of mine, but I think everything definitely happened the right way for me.
Chris Young
So what I say about Tracy is this: Tracy’s big challenge is not having a Parkinson’s patient for a husband. It’s having me for a husband. I happen to be a Parkinson’s patient.
Michael J. Fox
I tell my brethren in Palestine: be patient and continue your blessed struggle. We did not forget you. We are still healing another wound in the Muslim nation, which is the occupation of our land by the Americans. Your battle and ours are one and the same.
Mohammed Omar
Obviously, culturally, England’s style of play is a lot more direct and physical. In Spain, they’re a lot more patient, and they have the ball a lot more.
Toni Duggan
I discovered I’m a lot more patient than I thought I’d be. It takes a lot to shake me.
Jeremiah Brent
Cancer had given me a reverse celebrity status: all the attention for something you didn’t want to be known for. I had crossed over into a new land, the land of Patient. And with every step I was feeling less like Suleika.
Suleika Jaouad
All my mom’s side speaks Spanish. I speak to my grandparents in Spanish. Slowly. And they’re patient with me! But I do speak with them in Spanish and carry on conversations with them.
David Archuleta
I am happy to be patient zero. It is for the world, for the sick children and sick old people. My life has been good. I understand the risks but I research how people die and I am happy to say that today I do not know how I will die now. Tomorrow or in the long future I was up for a change.
Liz Parrish
We talk about long-term patient investing, and that idea that slow and steady does win the race, that time can be your best friend when it comes to investing. That’s why we have a turtle as a logo at Ariel.
Mellody Hobson
‘Meek’s Cutoff’ by Kelly Reichardt – it’s beautifully shot. It’s a complex story. The filmmaker gave a very patient and feminine touch to a story that takes place during a period of history that’s very masculine, without losing any of the unforgiving harshness of the reality where the characters found themselves in.
Chloe Zhao
David Lynch was very good, very patient with us, and the reaction in the United States seems pretty good.
Richard Farnsworth
Obamacare is, ‘Patient, heal yourself.’
John Barrasso
We decided to either try trades or just go with older players. If you do that and let contracts expire you can be in the lottery for about four or five years and expect your fans to be patient.
Isaiah Thomas
And I have to be willing to be patient to allow God’s plan to unfold and not go ahead and try to make my own circumstances happen for me. So, I’ve learned that He can be trusted for every need and desire but at the same time that may require patience on my end.
Kirk Cousins
For the first six years of his career, Sammy Sosa was one of the least patient players in the game. He could hit the long ball and steal a base, but he was undisciplined.
Bill Dedman
Sometimes, I am lucky because all factors are combined – composition, light, emotion – and sometimes not. Most of the time, I must be patient and wait.
Laurent Baheux
The way we have looked at pricing at Merck is we’ve always said we want to be responsible, which means we want to optimize profitability and patient access.
Kenneth Frazier
I have learned to be patient.
Yuan Yuan Tan
I’m patient with crossword puzzles and the most impatient golfer.
Brett Hull
Medical liability reform is not a Republican or Democrat issue or even a doctor versus lawyer issue. It is a patient issue.
John Ensign
HIV/AIDs patients depend on highly trained, specialized physicians. Each and every patient has a unique combination of retrovirals they depend on to keep them alive.
David Mixner
What we need in medical schools is not to teach empathy, as much as to preserve it – the process of learning huge volumes of information about disease, of learning a specialized language, can ironically make one lose sight of the patient one came to serve; empathy can be replaced by cynicism.
Abraham Verghese
Wise and humane management of the patient is the best safeguard against infection.
Florence Nightingale
Penn State University is also nationally recognized for the exceptional research and patient care provided at the College of Medicine, located in my Congressional District in Hershey, PA.
Tim Holden
The patient decides when it’s best to go.
Jack Kevorkian
We all have this idea of Ram being a patient person besides being a great archer, a horse-rider, and above all, a compassionate king. There is more to him than that.
Ashish Sharma
We ask the great masses of India to be patient a short time longer, while the cause of freedom is being fought out, not because we want to delay, but because the hard facts of war make a complete change impossible at the moment.
Stafford Cripps
Every therapeutic cure, and still more, any awkward attempt to show the patient the truth, tears him from the cradle of his freedom from responsibility and must therefore reckon with the most vehement resistance.
Alfred Adler
When I took the Hippocratic oath and was effectively ‘sworn in’ as a doctor, I took the same vow that doctors have taken for generations. Patient autonomy is core to this oath.
Ami Bera
Every patient is a consumer, and every consumer is a potential patient. What NantWorks is doing is building the world the way Da Vinci saw it, and augmenting every frame a human being sees as they work, live and play.
Patrick Soon-Shiong
Each race, I feel like I’m a little more patient.
Kyle Larson
For me, addiction exposes all of the brain mechanism under the influence of a profoundly distorted primary motivation. It’s such a window into how we function as human beings. And the patient doesn’t know that’s happening! Doesn’t believe that’s happening! That’s the fascinating part.
Drew Pinsky
Now, I love painting. I love looking. I love the fact that they don’t move. They constantly change with the light. They are sort of patient.
Gary Hume
Luckily for me, I don’t depend on seeing every patient who comes through my door to pay the rent, and so if someone is involved in an activity that I don’t like, I just don’t accept that person as a client.
Ruth Westheimer
So we had psychiatrists and counselors and therapists around the set regularly, especially for those scenes in which Jason would be dealing with a patient to make sure we were doing it all appropriately.
Alan Thicke
I’m not patient at all. I avoid writer’s block by writing. I power through with a bad version, so I can move on, and usually once I’ve gotten to the next scene, I’ll discover what was missing from the bad version scene. Then I can easily rewrite it to get back on the right path.
Anders Holm
The continental troops have as much courage and real discipline as those that are opposed to them. They are more inured to privation, more patient than Europeans, who, on these two points, cannot be compared to them.
Marquis de Lafayette
Healthcare providers will compete to offer the best record of patient safety at the lowest prices. Hospitals and patients will benefit from having accurate information about areas of excellence and areas that must be improved.
Timothy Murphy
Those who have the strength and the love to sit with a dying patient in the silence that goes beyond words will know that this moment is neither frightening nor painful, but a peaceful cessation of the functioning of the body.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
But no conversation between doctor and patient can magically turn an uninsured patient into an insured one. Doctors are just as helpless as patients when it comes to solving the problems of the uninsured.
Suleika Jaouad
Tens of billions of dollars could be saved in Medicare and Medicaid alone by eliminate fraud and improving patient care. Not only would this save money, but it will save lives.
Tim Murphy
You just have to know how to put in the work, know how to be patient, how to take advantage of every opportunity that you get.
Derrick Favors
People who might normally have to travel hours to a distant city to see a cardiologist can now do so virtually, through Cisco technology, at their local hospital or health clinic. Clinicians use technology to share patient reports and diagnostic images and collaborate on cases.
John T. Chambers
You take a tube of the patient’s blood, extracting platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, from it. It’s yellow in color, but it does all kinds of good things for the body: It speeds up healing, fills out the face. I spray it into wounds and use it in rhinoplasty.
Paul Nassif
I’ve learned that it’s not a straight road to the top, and there are going to be setbacks along the way. You have to be patient, and you have to keep believing in what you’re doing. And keep believing in yourself, no matter what is happening. And then eventually you’ll get there.
Eugenie Bouchard
That’s my number one thing I tell people: Be patient, because love comes to you naturally. Once you look for it, you choose the wrong person. Everything happens naturally; people come into your life when you’re ready. When it’s meant to be, it’s destined for it to happen, so you’re going to meet The One, one day.
Hennessy Carolina
When the depressive psychosis has become manifest, its cardinal feature seems to be a mental inhibition which renders a rapport between the patient and the external world more difficult.
Karl Abraham
It took me a long time to be able to say I was a cancer patient. Then, for a long time, I was only that: A cancer patient.
Suleika Jaouad
Therapy needs to be integrated. You mustn’t forget about a patient’s emotional wellbeing. It is vital to the outcome of their treatment.
Allan Hamilton
I’m not a very patient person in general.
Harper Reed
It’s very rare to have a patient who isn’t absolutely delighted when you say, ‘I read your feedback. The session didn’t go well. You actually got more upset, and I made about three really horrible errors.’ If you do that from the heart and not as a gimmick, boy, it’s a wonderful thing.
David D. Burns
Just be patient. Let the game come to you. Don’t rush. Be quick, but don’t hurry.
Earl Monroe
I never allowed writer’s block to be a reality. I framed it up for myself early on. I said, ‘OK, if I’m not writing, the well is just filling up. I’m going to be patient with this.’
Rodney Crowell
America is beyond power; it acts as in a dream, as a face of God. Wherever America is, there is freedom, and wherever America is not, madness rules with chains, darkness strangles millions. Beneath her patient bombers, paradise is possible.
John Updike
It was very tough to be patient.
Jermaine O’Neal
Post-operatively the transplanted kidney functioned immediately with a dramatic improvement in the patient’s renal and cardiopulmonary status. This spectacular success was a clear demonstration that organ transplantation could be life-saving.
Joseph Murray
In the investigation of a neurotic style of life, we must always suspect an opponent, and note who suffers most because of the patient’s condition. Usually this is a member of the family.
Alfred Adler
The patient is in intensive care but still alive.
Javier Perez de Cuellar
I’m not patient, and some things drive me crazy. In my work, I get incredibly upset when people don’t get it right or don’t respect others’ needs.
Colin Firth
I’m not good at chatting right away. Women have to be very patient with me, I suppose.
Garrett Hedlund
The older you are, the wiser you are. The more comfortable you are in your own skin, the more you know yourself, the more patient you are. I don’t sweat the small stuff any more.
Alesha Dixon
I believe – I clearly believe that government-run health care will be bad for you as a patient. It will be bad for you as a taxpayer.
Rick Scott
I realized that work doesn’t beget work. Good work begets work. So I got a lot more patient and stopped worrying about working all the time.
Brady Corbet
I am amazed to discover that I am a very patient guy.
Abhinav Shukla
I had a patient once who dreamed she kept her husband in the deep freeze except for mating. Lots of men feel that way.
Robert Johnson
Having been an oncologist and having cared for scores, if not hundreds, of dying patients, when you don’t have a treatment that can shrink the tumor and the patient will die, it’s a very difficult conversation. It’s emotionally draining.
Ezekiel Emanuel
The root of disaster means a star coming apart, and no image expresses better the look in a patient’s eyes when hearing a neurosurgeon’s diagnosis.
Paul Kalanithi
I am convinced that in order for you, as a patient, to be protected, it has to be transparent, evidence-based, objective information. Not self-serving information. Not pharma-driven information. Not ad-driven information. It is transparent, objective, evidence-based information.
Patrick Soon-Shiong
One baby is a patient baby, and waits indefinitely until its mother is ready to feed it. The other baby is an impatient baby and cries lustily, screams and kicks and makes everybody unpleasant until it is fed. Well, we know perfectly well which baby is attended to first. That is the whole history of politics.
Emmeline Pankhurst
I’m strongly for a patient Bill of Rights. Decisions ought to be made by doctors, not accountants.
Chuck Schumer
Present law has a process to ascertain whether or not a patient is in a persistent vegetative state, and it should not matter what politicians think.
Bobby Scott
I really admire people who are extraordinarily tolerant and patient.
Holly Hunter
I’m usually a patient guy anyway.
Curtis Joseph
Legislators should demand that we not go through the entire pension reform debate just to apply a band-aid when this patient needs a quadruple bypass.
Walker Stapleton
In philanthropy, you have to take the attitude of a mother… You have to be patient, and we have been very patient for a long time.
Shiv Nadar
I use a portable pocket ultrasound device instead of a stethoscope to listen to the heart, and I share it with the patient in real time. ‘Look at your valve, look at your heart-muscle strength.’ So they’re looking at it with me. Normally a patient is tested by an ultrasonographer who is not allowed to tell them anything.
Eric Topol
I endeavor to be wise when I cannot be merry, easy when I cannot be glad, content with what cannot be mended and patient when there be no redress.
Elizabeth Montagu
An educated patient is empowered; thus, more likely to become healthy.
Dean Ornish
It is needless to say that women make the most patient as well as the most dangerous pickpockets.
Harry Houdini
I’m very patient with life.
Mya
Cinema is a male-dominated bastion and one has to be patient.
Padmapriya Janakiraman
At a club like Chelsea, they have the money to buy world class strikers like Diego Costa, and there’s also that pressure to win trophies. I just have to stick with it, be patient, and hopefully my rewards will come.
Patrick Bamford
I would consider my dad a pretty patient guy, but there was no tolerance for spoiled behavior.
Wyatt Russell
Every insurer must offer every individual a plan and ensure each patient with pre-existing conditions has access to ‘adequate and affordable health insurance coverage.’
Bill Cassidy
If people are not patient and want radical change, it could set China back in a way to harm a lot of people. I advocate more freedom based on stability.
Neil Bush
Comedy is free therapy. And if it’s done well, the audience and the comic take turns being the doctor as well as the patient.
Maysoon Zayid
The disciplined approach to pursuing and selecting the most attractive investment opportunities continues to distinguish ExxonMobil. We are long-term driven, and we’re patient. And we’re not opportunity-constrained.
Rex Tillerson
Learning to love yourself is not going to happen overnight – the first step is trying to be kinder and more patient with yourself, and I understand that it takes time.
Tess Holliday
If you so choose, every mistake can lead to greater understanding and effectiveness. If you so choose, every frustration can help you to be more patient and more persistent.
Ralph Marston
The first thing is to be patient, which is probably the hardest thing to do. Don’t worry if blokes are whacking you out of the park because you still have the opportunity to get him out next ball, even if it’s not the same ball.
Shane Warne
If you’re a doctor, what do you promise to do? First, do no harm. If your operating philosophy is do no harm, that’s not a call to imagination. Not only that, if I’m a patient, I don’t want your imagination. I want what works.
Jay S. Walker
Doctors say there’s no such thing as chemo brain, but ask any chemo patient.
Sarah Addison Allen
Sexuality can be difficult to articulate, and we have to be patient and compassionate.
Tan France
The chief symptom of adolescence is a state of expectation, a tendency towards creative work, and a need for the strengthening of self-confidence. Suddenly, the child becomes very sensitive to the rudeness and humiliations which he had previously suffered with patient indifference.
Maria Montessori
We have long observed that every neurosis has the result, and therefore probably the purpose, of forcing the patient out of real life, of alienating him from actuality.
Sigmund Freud
The integration of exponentially growing technologies is beginning to empower the patient, enable the doctor, enhance wellness and begin to cure the well before they get sick.
Daniel Kraft
I have an obligation to use what I know to try to bring real, usable medical science to every doctor and bedside and patient.
Patrick Soon-Shiong
You do have to be patient. Control what you can control.
Zach Ertz
When death is imminent and dying patients find their suffering unbearable, then the physician’s role should shift from healing to relieving suffering in accord with the patient’s wishes.
Marcia Angell
Dann Huff is amazing and so patient.
Maddie Marlow
If you have doubts about someone, lay on a couple of jokes. If he doesn’t find anything funny, your radar should be screaming. Then I would say be patient with people who are negative, because they’re really having a hard time.
Michael J. Fox
When I try to be patient on my own, my patience is forced and short-lived. It is obvious to everyone that I am desperately trying to be patient.
Mother Angelica
Whether you’re working on becoming a more patient parent or you’re striving to become an elite athlete, building mental strength will help you reach your goals.
Amy Morin
I loved the study of psychology. I didn’t love seeing patient after patient. I was perpetually overstimulated, busy decoding everything I took in.
Laurie Helgoe
When I defend, it keeps me patient and lets my game come to me on the offensive end.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
Many of the books I loved as a kid, that even my mother read as a child, are very slow going. Today’s children are not as patient. The best example of this is ‘The Secret Garden,’ which I adored as a child.
Lois Lowry
In 1880 at the Military Hospital at Constantine, I discovered, on the edges of the pigmented spherical bodies in the blood of a patient suffering from malaria, filiform elements resembling flagellae which were moving very rapidly, displacing the neighbouring red cells.
Charles Louis Alphonse Laveran
With aging comes physical and emotional challenge. We cannot seem to get as much done in an hour as we did in youth. And it is harder to be patient with others, and they seem more demanding.
Henry B. Eyring
I’m not patient – and I’m getting more impatient as I get older – but I am disciplined about writing, and I want that on my tombstone: ‘He wasn’t patient, but he was disciplined.’
Douglas Coupland
Performing unconsented surgeries is considered battery because the patient can’t voice their opinion – they’re unconscious.
Paul Nassif
I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.
Joyce Meyer
There are certain characteristics that define a good chimp mother. She is patient, she is protective but she is not over-protective – that is really important. She is tolerant, but she can impose discipline. She is affectionate. She plays. And the most important of all: she is supportive.
Jane Goodall
I realized that with African American people, where we’ve been blocked from being all that God meant for us to be, I don’t have time to be patient.
Elijah Cummings
Every GM will tell you it’s an instinct. It’s an instinct to be patient, to react, or act, or not to do anything at all. It just comes. What I can say is you must have a plan and a goal and a way to do things. At the end of the day, it’s an instinct. Sometimes it’s good. Sometimes it’s bad.
Masai Ujiri
I have been very fortunate to be supported by many people in my career. I also appreciate my personal friends, business friends, and my family who have been patient and understanding of my long working hours.
Shuji Nakamura
People were talking while I was playing, so I got up and left the stage. I’ve gotten to the point where I’m not really very patient with patrons rapping during the show. And the people were all nice and quiet when I cam back.
Bruce Hornsby
I remain patient because my mom taught me growing up to be grateful for everything.
Zion Williamson
It is pure mythology that women cannot perform as well as men in science, engineering and mathematics. In my experience, the opposite is true: Women are often more adept and patient at untangling complex problems, multitasking, seeing the possibilities in new solutions and winning team support for collaborative action.
Weili Dai
Working families need to know that we will work to protect their health needs, promote the development of safe, effective medicines, and guarantee patient rights.
Christopher Dodd
Be patient – if something is supposed to happen, it’s going to happen. Whenever I’ve tried to force things, they didn’t go right.
Chiara Ferragni
The physician’s duty is not to stave off death or return patients to their old lives, but to take into our arms a patient and family whose lives have disintegrated and work until they can stand back up and face – and make sense of – their own existence.
Paul Kalanithi
I’m a very competitive person, but at the same time, as a quarterback, you gotta be poised; you gotta be very poised and patient. I’m pretty loose and relaxed, but I’m also very competitive.
Sam Darnold
Career-driven millennials are strategic about working obsessively while they are single and earning enough money to afford advanced education. Most are patient enough to wait until 30 or later to develop their dream.
Gail Sheehy
What I really appreciated about Obama in the last campaign was that he was not reactive, and we’re such a reactive culture… It takes a certain strength to be patient and have a plan.
Greg Berlanti
In the history of the treatment of depression, there was the dunking stool, purging of the bowels of black bile, hoses, attempts to shock the patient. All of these represent hatred or aggression towards what depression represents in the patient.
James Hillman
To the patient, any operation is momentous.
Joseph Murray
Growing up in Africa teaches you to become patient.
Bruce Grobbelaar
Gout produces calculus in the kidney… the patient has frequently to entertain the painful speculation as to whether gout or stone be the worst disease. Sometimes the stone, on passing, kills the patient, without waiting for the gout.
Thomas Sydenham
In addition to relieving patient suffering, research is needed to help reduce the enormous economic and social burdens posed by chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, arthritis, diabetes, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, cancer, heart disease, and stroke.
Ike Skelton
Part of my training was learning how to refer patients to cardiologists for heart problems, gastroenterologists for stomach issues, and rheumatologists for joint pain. Given that most physicians were trained this way, it’s no wonder that the average Medicare patient has six doctors and is on five different medications.
Mark Hyman
Insurance companies pay big bucks for procedures but next to nothing for patient consultations and preventive medicine, which is what most medicine is.
Alex Gibney
I have learnt to become patient as an actor.
Pankaj Kapur
Every fan wants to win every year, that’s how my dad was. It would be nice to be able to do that every year, but I think Lakers fans know, as long as they see progress, and steps going in the right direction, they’ll be patient.
Jeanie Buss
When you get to stock racing, you have to be a little more patient and ‘save your stuff’ to be there at the end.
Hailie Deegan
Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character.
Heraclitus
The U.K. and Europe in general seem to be a lot more patient. The U.S. are expecting ‘joke joke joke joke joke joke joke.’ They don’t actually sit and listen to you.
Bo Burnham
My wife is very patient. On our honeymoon in 1992, we got a motor home and drove from L.A. to Idaho and then down the coast. I was running a lot, then so she would drop me off, drive six miles, park and wait for me.
Sean Astin
If a patient is cold, if a patient is feverish, if a patient is faint, if he is sick after taking food, if he has a bed-sore, it is generally the fault not of the disease, but of the nursing.
Florence Nightingale
When Tigana took me on at Monaco he didn’t know much about me but he gave me a chance, and then he was very patient and allowed me to develop. Under him, I became braver.
David Trezeguet
Genomics, Artificial Intelligence, and Deep Machine learning technologies are helping practitioners deliver better diagnosis and actually freeing up time for patient interaction.
Frans van Houten
I had a pretty bad injury the end of my freshman year in college, and that taught me just to be patient.
Malcolm Brogdon
I am very proud of Jim Leiken. He has worked with me for six years and has been patient enough to learn the ropes. He’s now matured into a true chef and is working on building his team.
Daniel Boulud
At the WTO, it’s never a general surgery. It’s always a very specific, clinical, precise surgery – and you can’t miss the target. If you miss the target, you kill the patient. It’s as simple as that.
Roberto Azevedo
I’d like to be more patient! I just want everything now. I’ve tried to meditate, but it’s really hard for me to stay still. I’d like to try to force myself to do it, because everybody says how wonderful meditation is for you, but I can’t shut my mind up. So patience and learning is the key.
Ellen DeGeneres
I am an Addictive Personality, they say, a natural slave to passion – and many Doctors have warned me against it. I am a High-risk Patient.
Hunter S. Thompson
Now, when we first started, I would be playing something good and then feel like I wasn’t doing the right thing and launch into some idiotic cliche. Luckily for me, Bobby was patient.
Charlie Hunter
I’d love to have another film to go on to. I’m in the mood to work. But I have to be patient, you know, to find that particular kind of project. Occasionally I’ll write one myself if I can summon up the energy.
Peter Weir
Seeing The English Patient is wonderfully draining, but imagine acting in it for six months.
Kristin Scott Thomas
We’ve had three big ideas at Amazon that we’ve stuck with for 18 years, and they’re the reason we’re successful: Put the customer first. Invent. And be patient.
Jeff Bezos
You have to be patient and bide your time and hopefully your chance will come.
Conor Coady
I loved clinical practice, but in public health, you can impact more than one person at a time. The whole society is your patient.
Tom Frieden
Many a man thinks he is patient when, in reality, he is indifferent.
B. C. Forbes
I get really excited about specific therapies, personalized therapies. Like, let’s say, taking a piece of someone’s tumor and testing a bunch of treatments in a lab and being able to come up with the right therapy for that specific patient.
Mary Roach
If I have any message for others, it is to go for help early and not to be a resistant patient.
Patty Duke
I have learnt to be even more patient.
Roger Federer
Americans broadly consent to funding clinical research because they believe in the promise of medical research. But people support scientific work only if they trust that it serves societal interests, respects patient dignity and operates with guardrails.
Scott Gottlieb
Cancer affects all of us, whether you’re a daughter, mother, sister, friend, coworker, doctor, patient.
Jennifer Aniston
Sometimes with Polaroids, the shot you want to get in your head doesn’t happen. What it makes me do is be patient, I guess, or let go of that presumption of what the shot’s going to be.
Mike McCready
We must never neglect the patient’s own use of his symptoms.
Alfred Adler
How can you regret helping a suffering patient?
Jack Kevorkian
We’ve taken on health care in a big way in our office, ever since nine years ago when I was paralyzed. I was in eight different hospitals, three different rehab centers, and all the rooms were dreadful. As an architect, designer, and patient, I can do something to help.
Michael Graves
In America, we have to learn to be patient enough to figure out what somebody is saying. Somebody might actually be saying something.
Stanley Crouch
You’ve got to continue to be patient and get all your ducks in a row in order to make a success within this business. It’s not an easy thing to get into. It takes years and years and years.
Scott Storch
I only worked theater jobs, but they were all really silly when I first graduated. I was a line monitor at ‘Spamalot,’ which means I got there at 8 A.M. and told people how much the tickets were for standing room. I was an NYU Medical School fake patient, to teach doctors how to talk to patients.
Lauren Worsham
I have declared that patience is never more than patient. I too have declared, that I who am not patient am patient.
Gertrude Stein
