"理性编织的东西会被激情解开"
— Alexander Pope
Simplified Meaning:
When we make decisions based on clear thinking and logic, those choices can later be ruined if we let our emotions take control. Imagine you plan a budget carefully, deciding how much to spend and save. This plan is your logical decision. But if you see something you really want to buy and can't resist, you might spend too much and mess up your budget. Your emotional desire to buy something has undone your sensible plan. This quote is a reminder to stick with your logical decisions and try not to let strong emotions disrupt them.
