"Be confidently assured that any 'gods' that we build will always have veracious appetites, and sooner or later they will gorge themselves on that which built them."
"Opportunity may only knock once, but temptation'll knock down the damn door and drag you out by the hair."
"Pleasure, in itself harmless, may become mischievous, by endearing to us a state which we know to be transient and probatory, and withdrawing our thoughts from that of which every hour brings us nearer to the beginning, and of which no length of time will bring us to the end. Mortification is not virtuous in itself, nor has any other use, but that it disengages us from the allurements of sense. In the state of future perfection, to which we all aspire, there will be pleasure without danger, and security without restraint."
"The word lust can mean "selfish desire". . . .It is wanting something so badly you will do anything to get it. That is one of the tricks of the devil. It is too high a price to pay."
"If God offers the world for sale, how much will you pay for it? What is the price of your own destruction?"
"Everything Satan has to offer you is a collection of what Jesus rejected, it is the garbage bin of Jesus Christ. Matthew 4:1-17."
"My mom's coming home soon,' I said. 'We should go to your place.'Patch ran a hand across the shadow of stubble along his jaw. 'I have rules about who I take there.' I was getting really tired of that answer. 'If you showed me, you'd have to kill me?' I guessed, fighting the urge to feel irritated. 'Once I'm inside, I can never leave?'Patch studied me a moment. Then he reached into his pocket, twisted a key off his key chain, and slipped it into the front pocket of my pajama top. 'Once you've gone inside, you have to keep coming back."
"As I stare at it,I can feel little invisible strings,silently tugging me toward it. I have to touch it. I have to wear it. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen."
"If they really wanted us to resist temptation, they shouldn't a made it so damn tempting."

"The Temptations still stand today, not in spite of those who left us, but because of them."
"Bill Mitchell said he really liked it. But when he asked the other four their opinions, we all took one look at ourselves in our raggedy long winter coats and cracked up. We knew we weren't likely to tempt anyone or anything, but what the hell, it was as good a name as any."
