Summary

This quote, usually attributed to Friedrich Nietzsche, highlights the importance of emotional balance and self-control. It suggests that one should not abandon or neglect their emotions, as they play a crucial role in rational decision-making.

By acknowledging and managing one's emotions, they can maintain a harmonious relationship between their heart and mind, leading to a more balanced and grounded approach to life.
