But if we learn to think of it as anticipation, as learning, as growing, if we think of the time we spend waiting for the big things of life as an opportunity instead of a passing of time, what wonderful horizons open out!
But the delights of solitude don't only consist of dreaming. Next in enjoyment, I think, comes planning.
But the important thing about learning to wait, I feel sure, is to know what you are waiting for.
Everyone needs some time to themselves.
If we fix a goal and work towards it, then we are never just passing time.
So it is necessary that we should learn to be alone.
Solitude is pleasant. Loneliness is not.
The time I had waited probably made the difference between success and failure.
