What temptation means (C. S. Lewis)


  We never find out the strength of the evil impulse inside us until we try to fight it:  and Christ, because he was the only man who never yielded to temptation, is also the only man who knows to the full what temptation means.

--C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
