When you hurry you're more apt to make mistakes. But you have to be quick. If you're not quick you can't get things done.

The power of doing anything with quickness is always prized much by the possessor, and often without any attention to the imperfection of the performance.

Ambition never is in a greater hurry than I; it merely keeps pace with circumstances and with my general way of thinking.

If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing slowly... very slowly.

I've been in a hurry all my life. I've been in a hurry to succeed, and in a hurry to prove myself.

Everywhere, people are discovering that doing things more slowly often means doing them better and enjoying them more. It means living life instead of rushing through it. You can apply this to everything from food to parenting to work.

At times it is folly to hasten at other times, to delay. The wise do everything in its proper time.

I'm slow to make a decision. I need to think things over for a long time, to weigh the pros and cons, to look at issues 10, 20, or 30 times. But when that's done, I'm quick to act.

I swing between procrastination and being really thorough so either way things aren't getting done quickly.

I work very fast, keeping the ideas flowing but making sure they come out the way I intended.
