The mind is always the patsy of the heart.

Summary

This quote suggests that the heart, or our emotions and desires, tend to overpower and manipulate the logical thinking of our mind. It implies that our rationality and reasoning often succumb to our emotional impulses, leading us to make irrational decisions or fall into patterns of behavior driven by passion rather than logic. In essence, it highlights the vulnerability of our minds to be swayed by the powerful influence of our emotions.
