you risk even more.

"Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is
everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical
about it. . . . It really is worth fighting for, being brave for,
risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk
everything, you risk even more".
-Erica Jong in How to Save Your Own Life (1977)
