| Anne Lamott |  Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don't give up.

| Anne Tyler | I remember leaving the hospital - thinking, 'Wait, are they going to let me just walk off with him? I don't know beans about babies! I don't have a license to do this.' We're just amateurs.
Anne Tyler |
| Anthony Holden | It's a problem for him because he's got - like Edward VII had - nearly all his lifetime to wait until he becomes Monarch. What is he going to do with it? So he wants to do something positive but he always courts those dangers.

| are | She sits in her own little office, and the ladies who are seeking employment wait in an anteroom, and are then shown in one by one, when she consults her ledgers and sees whether she has anything which would suit them. |
| Arthur Godfrey | If I go to a seminar and someone like you or someone like him is talking, I'm never part of the group that rushes him directly afterward. I always wait in the back corner with my head down until everyone is gone, and then I go up and do my thing.
Arthur Godfrey |
| Ashton Kutcher | I don't believe that old cliche that good things come to those who wait. I think good things come to those who want something so bad they can't sit still.

| Baltasar Gracian | Let the first impulse pass, wait for the second.

| Barack Obama | Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

| Barbara Walters | Wait for those unguarded moments. Relax the mood and, like the child dropping off to sleep, the subject often reveals his truest self.
Barbara Walters |
| Barry Cornwall | All round the room my silent servants wait, My friends in every season, bright and dim.
Barry Cornwall |
| Barry Mann | I think that most writers who wait until they're inspired to write are just waiting for the fear to subside.

| Ben Hogan | I couldn't wait for the sun to come up the next morning so that I could get out on the course again.

| Ben Nicholas | If you wait for inspiration you'll be standing on the corner after the parade is a mile down the street.

| Ben Nicholas | Most of life is routine - dull and grubby, but routine is the momentum that keeps a man going. If you wait for inspiration you'll be standing on the corner after the parade is a mile down the street.

| Benny Anderson | If we thought it would improve our relationship, we would get married tomorrow, but as it is, nearly 7 years after we got engaged, we are content to wait.

| Bernadette Peters | Into The Woods was... a lot of running around in the woods! I can't wait to see the show again. People didn't realize it back then, but kids still come up to me-young people-and they talk about it. It really made its mark.
Bernadette Peters |
| Bill Gates | If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He doesn't have tenure.
Bill Gates |
| Bill Veeck | The Falstaff people, romantics all, went for it. They were so anxious to find out what I was going to do that they could hardly bear to wait out the two weeks. I was rather anxious to find out what I was going to do, too.
Bill Veeck |
| Blythe Danner | Just look at my face. Its an extraordinary experience. All of my friends who are grandparents have been saying, just wait, a bit cynically, but its just extraordinary. You feel like a child again yourself. Just walking on air.
Blythe Danner |
| Bob Anderson | You can't always wait for the guys at the top. Every manager at every level in the organization has an opportunity, big or small, to do something. Every manager's got some sphere of autonomy. Don't pass the buck up the line.
Bob Anderson |
