Festina Lente

'Festina Lente' is a classical adage and oxymoron meaning 'make haste slowly' or 'more haste, less speed'. It has been used as the motto of many people including the emperors Augustus and Titus, the Medicis and the Onslows.
The meaning of the phrase is that activities should be performed with a proper balance of urgency and diligence. If tasks are rushed too quickly then mistakes are made and good long-term results are not achieved. Work is best done in a state of flow in which one is fully engaged by the task and there is no sense of time passing.
