“Endurance is nobler than strength, and patience than beauty.”– John Ruskin Related Quotes “Prayer is more than meditation. In meditation the source of strength is one’s self. When one prays he goes to a source of strength greater than his own.”– Chiang Kai-shek “I understand why creative people like dark, but American audiences don’t like dark. They like story. They do not respond to nervous breakdowns and unhappy episodes that lead nowhere. They like their characters to be a part of the action. They like strength, not weakness, a chance to work out any dilemma.”– Leslie Moonves “Sometimes you have to take the focus off of you and put it on someone else and it’s funny what you can accomplish and how much strength you really have.”– Hoda Kotb
