I would think this an irrationality quote? “Fuzzy” thinking skills are ridiculously important. “Intuition” may be somewhat unreliable, but in certain domains and under certain conditions, it can be—verifiably—a very powerful method.
I took as being rationality in the sense that it follows the form: “just because you want to action x does not mean that action x is possible”, which is always a good reminder.
Intuition is extremely powerful when correctly trained. Just because you want to have powerful intuitions about something doesn’t mean it’s possible to correctly train them.

That’s so, but it’s also true that just because you’re personally not good at X, that does not mean that X is impossible or worthless.
Maybe it would be best to shorten it?
Yes. It depends whether we are in the context of discovery (or of “getting things done”) or the context of justification.
You can’t reasonable talk about darkness without talking about light. It’s the same topic.
Do you mean to match up intuition and logic, or rationality quotes and irrationality quotes, or something else?
