Don't be rash...

... Attila József tells us. Seems fitting in a world where even academics are pressed to publish, publish, publish! Origin.

Don't be rash
Though you work for others' cash
work with precision, let time slowly by
just as the stars move across the sky

'tis the only way.

I was tempted to make up a new phrase by writing, "let time slow by". I really like the phrase but others (all three of you) may find it annoying.
