Mencken All men are tempted. There is no man that lives that can't be broken down, provided it is the right temptation, put in the right spot. Henry Ward Beecher Mortals are easily tempted to pinch the life out of their neighbour's buzzing glory, and think that such killing is no murder. George Eliot By crying on my bed, drinking quite a lot and feeling tempted by drugs. Well, just not reading it to be perfectly honest with you. I know it's a bit of a copout. Jo Brand Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things, I am tempted to think there are no little things. Bruce Barton When I hear somebody sigh, 'Life is hard,' I am always tempted to ask, 'Compared to what?' Sydney J. Harris If a man went simply by what he saw, he might be tempted to affirm that the essence of democracy is melodrama. Irving Babbitt The whole of science, and one is tempted to think the whole of the life of any thinking man, is trying to come to terms with the relationship between yourself and the natural world. Why are you here, and how do you fit in, and what's it all about.
