Ther nis no werkman, whatsoevere he be, That may bothe werke wel and hastily.

Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales|The Canterbury Tales, "The Merchant's Tale|The Merchant's Tale"

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

Max Ehrmann|Max Ehrmann, "Desiderata|Desiderata" (1927)

The feeling of being hurried is not usually the result of living a full life and having no time. It is on the contrary born of a vague fear that we are wasting our life. When we do not do the one thing that we ought to do, we have no time for anything else—we are the busiest people in the world.

Eric Hoffer, Reflections on the Human Condition (1973), § 156

Though I am always in haste, I am never in a hurry.

John Wesley (1703–1791). Letter to a member of the Society, 10th December 1777, Select Letters (1837)

Haste makes waste.
