"Haste is of the Devil"

St. Jerome's quote "Haste is of the Devil" is a caution versus hurrying through life without taking the time to think and show. He is cautioning us to be mindful of our actions and to take the time to think about the consequences of our choices. He is reminding us that when we act in haste, we are most likely to make mistakes and to be led astray by our own desires. He is also cautioning us that when we act in haste, we are more likely to be affected by the devil, who seeks to lead us away from God's will. By putting in the time to believe and reflect, we can ensure that our decisions remain in line with God's will and that we are not being led astray by our own desires.
