“My mistake has too often been that of too much haste. But it is not the people’s way to hurry, nor is it God’s way either. Hurry means worry, and worry effectually drives the peace of God from the heart.”

“My heart is too thoroughly dried to be broken in a hurry, and I mean to live as long as I can.”

“If it is a mistake of the head and not the heart don't worry about it, that's the way we learn.”

“Hurry and hurry, autumn leaves hurrying on the rainy wind, snow hurrying out of the sky, life hurrying to death, gods hurrying to oblivion.”

“The only way to maintain a moderate sum of happiness in this life, is not to worry about the future or regret the past too much.”

“For Every worry under the sun there is a remedy or there is none; if there is a remedy hurry and find it. If there is none never mind it.”

“Do you kill people?'
'Not regularly. It's too much trouble making my peace with the gods afterwards.”

“Don't worry about losing. If it is right, it happens - The main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away.”

“Roberto Clemente doesn't care too much for New York. Says there are too many people and everybody is in too much of a hurry. He had one ride on the subway with Felipe Montemayor as his guide and they got lost.”

“Ah, Aphrodite, if I sing no more
To thee, God's daughter, powerful as God,
It is that thou hast made my life too sweet
To hold the added sweetness of a song.
There is a quiet at the heart of love,
And I have pierced the pain and come to peace.”
