“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
“I'm not interested in age. People who tell me their age are silly. You're as old as you feel.”

Scott Adams
“It is always a silly thing to give advice, but to give good advice is absolutely fatal”
