Sometimes, doing things fast opens up opportunities to do things right.



This is true. However, if you do things fast and wrong, you've got an even bigger problem in figuring it out how to do things right because now you have to do both at the same time, and usually with the same number of people.


You know, not only that, but this implies that wrong is always fast. That is wrong. Often, wrong goes slower as time goes on. I'd rather have slow, steady progress than explosive growth and eventual failure.


I've got some legacy apps I work on that prove that wrong. :)
