"Cooler heads prevail" nghĩa là gì?

"Cooler heads (must) prevail" = cái đầu lạnh thắng thế -> người bình tĩnh, không giải quyết theo hướng thiên về cảm xúc mới là người chiến thắng cuối cùng. 

Ví dụ 
Cooler heads must prevail! Masai Ujiri’s altercation/shove (gây gổ/ xô đẩy) with a police officer on the court of Oracle Arena can lead to a lot more than just a misdemeanor charge (cáo buộc sai trái). 

Now, as cooler heads prevail, one stock that investors should look at is Humana (ticker: HUM), a managed-care company well-positioned to ride out (vượt qua được) health-reform jitters (bồn chồn lo sợ). 

Thankfully, cooler heads prevailed, no punches were thrown, and no one was ejected. However, both benches (băng ghế) were warned, and that’s where Bells’ beef with the umpire (trọng tài) is completely justified (hợp lý). 

There have been a handful (một ít, một nắm) of other such incidents over the years. For the most part, after the emotions simmer down (yên tĩnh lại), cooler heads prevail, handshakes and apologies are made, and it blows over. Sometimes, it takes a little bit longer — like after retirement.
