Nothing makes it easier to resist temptation than a proper bringing-up, a sound set of values - and witnesses.
- Franklin P Jones
The moment you begin a serious study of the scriptures, you will find greater power to resist temptation. You will find the power to avoid deception. You will find the power to stay on the straight and narrow path.... When you begin to hunger & thirst after those words, you will find life in greater abundance.
- Ezra Taft Benson
I never resist temptation, because I have found that things that are bad for me do not tempt me.
- George Bernard Shaw
Why resist temptation? There will always be more.
- Don Herold
She'd never been able to resist temptation - especially an unhealthy one - and at that moment he was another pill, another line; one she needed, one she would die if she couldn't have, and her entire body was already vibrating in anticipation.
- Stacia Kane
People are rarely diabolic or bent enthusiastically on evil. As a rule, they are only weak; they cannot resist temptation and thus give way to their evil drives.
- Erik Von Kuehnelt Leddihn
What I learned with Cecil Taylor was strategy and survival and how to resist temptations and resist getting discouraged.
- Steve Lacy
Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is.... We never find out the strength of the evil impulse inside us until we try to fight it: and Christ, because He was the only man who never yielded to temptation, is also the only man who knows to the full what temptation meansthe only complete realist.
- C S Lewis
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
Unwinding a habit that you have allowed to entangle you can be difficult. But the power is in you. Do not despair. The Prophet Joseph Smith taught that 'all beings who have bodies have power over those who have not.' You can resist temptation!
- Boyd K Packer
Everyone is tested. One might think it is unfair to be singled out and subjected to a particular temptation, but this is the purpose of mortal lifeto be tested. And the answer is the same for everyone: we must, and we can, resist temptations of any kind.
- Boyd K Packer
I have found that people who can successfully resist temptation invariably lead depressingly stunted lives.
- C D Payne
Love is the one thing stronger than desire and the only proper reason to resist temptation.
- Jeanette Winterson
Only the strong hearted can resist temptation and only but a fool would resist love.
