Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 22

Affairs succeed by patience and a hasty man fails. I saw with my eyes in the desert That a slow man overtook a fast one. A galloping horse, fleet like the wind, fell back Whilst the camel-man continued slowly his progress. THE GULISTAN OF SA'DI Translated by Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890)
