Temptation hath a music for all ears.
NATHANIEL PARKER WILLIS, "Extract"
There's a lesson in every temptation.
FRANK HERBERT, God Emperor of Dune
- I gaze into the doorway of temptation’s angry flame
- And every time I pass that way I always hear my name
BOB DYLAN, "Every Grain of Sand"
There are those who say that temptation can be barricaded beyond the door. The ones who think that stray desires can be driven out of the heart like the moneychangers from the temple. Maybe they can, if you patrol your weak points day and night, don't look, don't smell, don't dream.
JEANETTE WINTERSON, Written on the Body
