It is always those who are ready who suffer in delays.
Il fornito
Sempre con danno l'attender sofferse.
Sempre con danno l'attender sofferse.

More quotes by Dante Alighieri
Love hath so long possessed me for his own
And made his lordship so familiar.
She is the sum of nature's universe.
To her perfection all of beauty tends.
The truth thy speech doth show, within my heart reproves the swelling pride.
