“A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is...

They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“Right now I'd like all my troubles to stand in front of me in a straight line, and one by one I'd give each a black eye. ”
