About this Quote

This quote by Oscar Wilde talks to the power of feelings and how they can influence our choices and actions. Wilde recommends that the benefit of emotions is that they can lead us far from the sensible and rational course, enabling us to explore brand-new possibilities and experiences.

Nevertheless, it can likewise be dangerous, as it can lead us to make decisions that are not in our benefit. For that reason, it is very important to be knowledgeable about our emotions and how they can affect our decisions. By comprehending our emotions and how they can lead us astray, we can make more informed decisions and prevent potential mistakes.
