“The things we love destroy us every time, lad. Remember that”

George R.R. Martin

Simplified Meaning:

When we have strong feelings towards something or someone, it can sometimes hurt us. For example, if you love a sport but play it too much, you could get hurt or exhausted. Or, if you care too much about making money, you might work so hard that you forget to spend time with family and friends. This idea is a warning to be careful about our passions. We should enjoy them, but also keep them in balance so they don't end up causing us harm. It's about finding a healthy middle ground in everything we love.
