Re: HE WHO HESITATES IS LOSTPosted by Smokey Stover on November 17, 2005 In Reply to: HE WHO HESITATES IS LOST posted by Aman Tesfazghi on November 17, 2005 : I am an international student here in the USA and I would like to understand what the phrase "HE WHO HESITATES IS LOST" means. : Thank you in advance. : Aman What gives? Two of you? "He who hesitates is lost" is a pretty transparent expression. It means that if you react too slowly to situations, especially urgent ones, you'll die, get hit, lose a good opportunity, lose the girl, fail to make the grade. "Lost" is deliberately a bit vague. It does NOT mean here, unable to find one's way home.
