Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want
to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and
little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that coffin
- safe, dark, motionless, airless - it will change, it will not be brokent. It will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.
To love is to be vulnerable.
- C.S. Lewis
