“
When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty, I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.
—C.S. Lewis

"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to 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 casket - safe, dark, motionless, airless-- it will change. It will not be broken; it will becme unbreakable,
impenetrable, irredeemable."

"If I find myself desires
which nothing in this world can satisfy,
the only logical explanation is
that I was made for
another world."

Love anything and your heart will certainly be wrung ... and possibly broken. If you want to be sure that you keep it intact, you must not give your heart to anyone. Cover it carefully with hobbies and little luxuries, avoid any tangles. You keep it locked in the casket or coffin of your selfishness, because in that casket-safe, dark, motionless, airless-your heart will change pieces and they will not, it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable...
Love is to be vulnerable.

“If you've been up all night and cried till you have no more tears left in you - you will know that there comes in the end a sort of quietness. You feel as if nothing was ever going to happen again.” - C.S Lewis.

“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”
“That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat.
“I don't much care where—” said Alice.
“Then it doesn't matter which way you go,” said the Cat.
“—so long as I get somewhere,” Alice added as an explanation.
“Oh, you're sure to do that,” said the Cat, “if you only walk long enough.” -Through the Looking Glass
