According to the Google translation, It is not a good thing even in a hurry. 急いでも良いことないよ いそいでもいいことないよ

It means "even if you hurry, that is no good/use," with the connotation of "just rushing (for the sake of it) is going to get you to a no better position, rather you could make things worse."

It might be a little deviate story but, in Japan and there is a saying, "More haste, less speed(isogaba maware,急がば回れ)". (If you hurry, take a long but steady road.) Seiteha kotowo shisonjiru(急いてはことを仕損じる), there is also a saying. (You will fail if you hurry too much.) In the English proverb, Haste makes waste. More haste, less speed. Make haste slowly. It seems to be similar to. http://www.geocities.jp/sonny_l_lab/english/proverbs/h/haste_makes.htm
