> She makes all her decisions based on the heart, rather than the mind

Maybe I reading the wrong thing into that. I make decisions with my heart and mind.

Heart = I care about my kids and want them to be healthy

Mind = To care for them I vaccinate them and don't use homeopathy

Maybe I'm misinterpreting this but my general experience is someone who "makes all decisions based on the heart, rather than the mind" generally makes some very poor decisions that actually don't lead to the results they want.

@Greggman - I like your Heart/Mind example more approachable variant of Bertrand Russell's "The way forward for humanity is compassion guided by knowledge".
