When Slow is More

There is an odd prejudice in favor of speed. The idea that faster is better makes no sense in many situations, especially those related to pleasure. Rushing through a gourmet meal or a great novel or a conversation with a loved one reduces the joy and yet many people will forego pleasure so they can hurry along to their next stilted experience.

Just as less can be more, so too can slow be more. 

Fast is not the only speed.
