About This Quote

Let emotion inform, but not form, your decision is a phrase that was used by the English author and civil servant William Lambarde. It is often used as a way to describe a process that involves considering both logic and emotion, or as an approach to decision-making. Many people use the idea of letting their emotions guide their decisions as a way to avoid making a hard choice, and it can be dangerous to rely on feelings alone.
