뜻
Patience leads to better results.
문화적 배경
The proverb reflects the Italian 'Slow Food' philosophy, which started in 1986 as a protest against fast food. It emphasizes that quality life requires time. In the South, the pace of life is often slower due to the heat and a long history of agricultural life. This proverb is a daily mantra. While Northern Italy is very productive, there is still a respect for 'doing things right' rather than just 'doing things fast,' especially in luxury manufacturing. Teachers often use this to discourage 'cramming' (studiare tutto all'ultimo minuto) and encourage steady study habits.
