Quote by Francis de Sales

“We must act in this temptation as in that against chastity: neither dispute with it much or little; but do as the children of Israel did with the bones of the Paschal lamb, which they would not attempt to break, but cast whole into the fire. We must not answer or appear to understand what the enemy says. Let him brawl as long as he pleases at the door; we need only say: Who’s there? That is true, you will tell me; but he annoys me, and the noise he makes outside is so great that I cannot understand or arrange anything well within. Patience!”
