“Whoever walks the path will arrive.”

The explanation

What does Arabic proverb mean?

An Arabic saying, usually quoted as one half of a pair — “whoever walks the path arrives, and whoever is earnest finds.” Both halves make the same claim, which is about persistence rather than speed: arrival is promised to the walking, not to the pace.
