Quote by Nalini Singh

Emotion without reason lets people walk all over you; reason without emotion is a mask for cruelty.

Emotion without reason lets people walk all over you; reason

Summary

This quote highlights the importance of striking a balance between emotion and reason. It suggests that solely relying on emotions can make one vulnerable and easily taken advantage of, as it may cloud judgment and lead to impulsive decisions. On the other hand, solely relying on reason without any emotional sensitivity can lead to a lack of empathy or understanding, potentially leading to cruelty and indifference towards others. Ultimately, the quote encourages the integration of both emotion and reason to navigate relationships and decision-making in a more compassionate and effective manner.

As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be.
