    I know as well as any one, [the devil] is an adversary, whom if we resist, he will fly from us—but I seldom resist him at all; from a terror, that though I may conquer, I may still get a hurt in the combat—so ... instead of thinking to make him fly, I generally fly myself.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    A husband’s mother and his wife had generally better be visitors than inmates.
