One cannot love and be wise.

Prov. People often fall in love with someone with whom they are not compatible or behave foolishly when they are in love. My son and his girlfriend have decided to get married in the spring. I don't think that's wise, since they won't have enough money saved by then to set up house. But then, one cannot love and be wise.
