There is a wisdom of the head, and ... a wisdom of the heart

Summary

This quote highlights the duality of wisdom, suggesting that there is both a rational and intellectual wisdom of the head and an intuitive and emotional wisdom of the heart. While the head's wisdom is fueled by logic and knowledge, the wisdom of the heart comes from emotional intelligence and empathetic understanding. It emphasizes that true wisdom encompasses both aspects, encouraging us to balance reason and empathy to make well-rounded and thoughtful decisions.
