“Sometimes patience pays. That's what I always thought.” — Wissam Ben Yedder Quote

Sometimes patience pays. That's what I always thought.

Whether it is in duels with defenders or against keepers, I use a lot of what I learnt and perfected playing futsal all those years ago.

It's true that moving out of that fairly difficult environment, how we lived, which wasn't easy, can be seen as a success. And it's a good thing.

It's complicated, but it's part of life - play, be a substitute, wait for your time.

It's great to look back at when we used to play in the neighbourhood, seeing mum shouting and also how we grew up playing in football tournaments between the estates. We'd go to another estate and play them. Also, seeing yourself progress bit by bit - those are all happy memories.

If I am told to be at a shoot at 10 A.M., I am ready on time. By 11:30, I lose my patience. After that, I keep threatening to leave the sets if they don't begin soon. It works sometimes.

I wish I had more patience.

Patience is key, as long as you have a purpose.

I don't have the patience... an angry man cannot get into politics.

Secretary of War Stanton used to get out of patience with Lincoln because he was all the time pardoning men who ought to be shot.
