more haste, less speed

谚语

英文释义

谚语
  1. When one is in a hurry, one often ends up having less success and completing a task more slowly.

词源

The word speed is used here in the dated sense of “success, luck”, though probably with a pun on the sense “velocity”. Compare the same in Low German je gröter Hast, je minder Spood.
