Temptations
 
  Temptations, when we meet them at first, are as the lion that roared upon Samson; but if we overcome them, the next time we see them we shall find a nest of honey within them.
            —John Bunyan		  1
  Temptations, like misfortunes, are sent to test our moral strength.
            —Marguerite de Valois		  2
