Precipitancy created prodigality
Precipitancy is a fancy word for Haste and Prodigality is another fancy word for waste. So the more familiar version of the phrase is haste makes waste. I have personally experienced this saying in my life when i was in a wreck the summer of 08. I was in the biggest hurry to get home from practice so that i could take a shower and get ready to go out that night when friends. I was driving and pulling stuff from the back seat into the front seat so that when i got home i could hop right out of the car when i slammed right into the back of a van. The cops were called and my car was a complete mess. The passenger side door wouldnt open, the hood wouldnt open either and the front was completely destroyed. My parents gave me a nice lecture when i got home about how i could have really hurt someone and myself. This created waste because i was more late then what i would have been if i had just drove more carefully.Since then i still find myself in hurries all the time for school, etc, but i still remember how stupid that was for bein in a hurry and when i try to remember i slow down when i drive in a hurry.
