“But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?”

“What is all your studying worth, all your learning, all your knowledge, if it doesn’t lead to wisdom? And what’s wisdom but knowing what is right, and what is the right thing to do?”

“It isn't always easy to act on what's in your head instead of what's in your heart. And it isn't always right to.”

Steven Brust book Athyra

Athyra (1993)
Context: It isn't always easy to act on what's in your head instead of what's in your heart. And it isn't always right to. The whole trick to knowing what to do is deciding when to make yourself listen to your head, and when it's okay to just follow your feelings.
