Clive Staples Lewis. Love (№ 344131)

To love is to be vulnerable. To insure is impossible, love is fraught with grief. Love and your heart is in danger. If you want to protect it, not give it to either man or beast. Oputa his petty pleasures and desires, lock in the casket of selfishness. This robust, dark, devoid of air coffin it will not break. It will be impossible neither to break nor touch, nor save. To love is to be vulnerable.
