Quote by William Pitt

Confidence is a plant of slow growth in an aged heart.


Confidence is a plant of slow growth in an aged heart.

Summary

This quote suggests that confidence is not something that develops quickly or easily, particularly in older individuals. Instead, it is something that takes time and experience to nurture and cultivate. Just like a plant that grows slowly, confidence requires patience, self-reflection, and learning from life's lessons. It implies that as we age, it becomes more challenging to build and strengthen our self-assurance, but it is not impossible. With time and effort, even the most aged heart can foster and grow the seed of confidence.
