“How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?”
— William Shakespeare

Simplified Meaning:
People who can't wait or be patient are at a disadvantage. Healing takes time and happens gradually, not immediately. For example, when someone gets a physical injury like a cut, it doesn't get better instantly. You need to clean it, cover it, and wait for days or even weeks for it to heal completely. If you are impatient and keep picking at it, it will take even longer to heal. Similarly, in life, whether it's learning a new skill, mending a broken relationship, or recovering from a setback, patience is crucial. Rushing the process can lead to more problems. So, it's important to be patient and let things progress at their natural pace to see real improvements and results.
