Henry David Thoreau
You’ve got to go out on a limb sometimes because that’s where the fruit is.
Will Rogers
No greater thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen.
Epictetus
Let us learn to appreciate there will be times when the trees will be bare, and look forward to the time when we may pick the fruit.

A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
