忄 (xīn) is a radical in Chinese characters that represents the heart or mind. It is often used in characters that relate to emotions or mental states.
The character 忄 (xīn) has evolved from the ancient pictograph of a heart, which was used to represent the organ and by extension, emotions and thoughts.
Think of the character 快 (kuài) as a person running quickly, which is why it means fast. For 慢 (màn), imagine a snail moving slowly, which is why it means slow.
快 (kuài) can be broken down into 忄 (xīn) and 夬 (guài), where 忄 represents the heart and 夬 represents a decision. This suggests a quick decision, hence the meaning fast. 慢 (màn) can be broken down into 忄 (xīn) and 曼 (màn), where 曼 represents a long time, hence the meaning slow.
