“Rudeness is the weak man’s imitation of 
strength.”

2
00:00:10,900 --> 00:00:13,200
Eric Hoffer makes a good point.

3
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:18,400
Some people are rude to others in an attempt 
to show dominance or importance.

4
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:24,600
Their efforts often fall flat, leaving a 
bad impression or creating offense.

5
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:29,600
Strength of character comes not when you 
state your mind without thought,

6
00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:32,700
but when you are patient and respectful of 
those around you.

7
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,800
Now, when I say patient,

8
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:41,400
I am referring to much more than simply waiting 
for a response or waiting for a person to 
change.

9
00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:43,900
When you’re patient with others,

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
you have learned how to wait well.

11
00:00:46,100 --> 00:00:51,000
You’re not rude or inconsiderate, but you 
are kind while waiting.

12
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:53,400
