About this quote

This classic saying encourages patience and open-mindedness about the future. It suggests that time alone reveals how events will unfold, so there is little point in worrying or making hasty predictions. Rather than trying to control every outcome, one should simply wait, observe, and allow life to reveal its answers in due course. It is a quiet reminder to embrace uncertainty.

As a traditional French proverb, its exact origin and date remain unknown. The phrase has circulated in written French literature and oral tradition for centuries, functioning as a common vernacular expression across the Francophone world.

People often hang this in a hallway or study as a steadying daily thought when entering or leaving home.
