“God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way.”

― Mark Twain, Life on the Mississippi

“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... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option.”
― Mark Twain
