Marathons don't come to you overnight.

There is nothing puzzling ... about America's gratuitously aggressive foreign policy or about the oligarchs' successful efforts to drag the Republic into five wars.

Overnight it blasts public hope.

Judgment is a delicate thing and does not come overnight.

You can't expect a coach to come in and just change everything overnight.
If you want success, you have to work hard at it and realize that it takes time; it doesn't come to you overnight.
