If one is deserving, the Torah becomes a potion of life for him. If one is not deserving, the Torah becomes a potion of death for him… For one who is skillful in his study of Torah and immerses himself in it with love, it is a potion of life; but for one who is not skillful in his studies, it is a potion of death. (b.Yoma 72b)
