Here again the time to act has not yet come. But the patience needed is not that of idle waiting without thought of the morrow. Kept up indefinitely, this would not lead to any success. Instead, they must develop in themselves the strength that will enable them to go forward. They must have a vehicle, as it were, to effect the crossing. But they must for the time being use the brakes. Patience in the highest sense means putting brakes on strength.
