Haste Makes Waste Quotes by Benjamin Franklin, Henry David Thoreau, John Heywood, Leonardo da Vinci, Willie Nelson, George Eliot and many others.
Take time for all things.
Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping.
Many hands make light work.
A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man’s life as in a book.
Learn diligence before speedy execution.
What goes around, comes around.
Don’t judge a book by its cover
Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste.
What do we tell our children? Haste makes waste. Look before you leap. Stop and think. Don’t judge a book by its cover. We believe that we are always better off gathering as much information as possible and spending as much time as possible in deliberation.

Early to bed and early to rise makes a person dull, boring, and despised.
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man’s life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars.
Let wealth come in by comely thrift,
And not by any sordid shift;
‘T is haste
Makes waste;
Extremes have still their fault.
Who gripes too hard the dry and slipp’ry sand,
Holds none at all, or little, in his hand.
And not by any sordid shift;
‘T is haste
Makes waste;
Extremes have still their fault.
Who gripes too hard the dry and slipp’ry sand,
Holds none at all, or little, in his hand.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
A wise man will make haste to forgive, because he knows the true value of time, and will not suffer it to pass away in unnecessary pain.
