Carrie Chapman Catt
“Again and again I am brought up against it, and again and again I resist it: I don't want to believe it, even though it is almost palpable: the vast majority lack an intellectual conscience; indeed, it often seems to me that to demand such a thing is to be in the most populous cities as solitary as in the desert.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“What fates impose, that men must needs abide; It boots not to resist both wind and tide”
William Shakespeare
“As the Sandwich-Islander believes that the strength and valor of the enemy he kills passes into himself, so we gain the strength of the temptations we resist”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“I can resist everything except temptation.”
Oscar Wilde
“Many more of the infections we see are caused by the resistant bacteria. The bacteria has developed resistance to some of the antibiotics that used to easily cure the infections.”
Margaret Spear
“What makes resisting temptation difficult for many people, is that they don't want to discourage it completely.”
Benjamin Franklin
