"Temptation to a certain sin, to any sin
whatsoever, might last throughout our whole life, yet it can never make us
displeasing to God’s Majesty provided we do not take pleasure in it and give
consent to it. You must have great courage in the midst of temptation. Never
think yourself overcome as long as they are displeasing to you, keeping clearly
in mind the difference between feeling temptation and consenting to it."
— St. Francis de Sales, The Fulfillment of All
Desire
