Hot issues are better resolved when there is less tension. This proverb, coined by Snow (John Snow), means that emotional conflicts or sensitive situations are best handled after tempers have cooled — not in the heat of the moment. Like eggs that can still be enjoyed after chilling, some matters are better when allowed time to settle.
“I wanted to confront my business partner yesterday, but I waited. You know what they say — eggs are better served cold.”
