Quote by Michael Josephson
Never underestimate the power of temptation to disarm your better

Never underestimate the power of temptation to disarm your better senses. Throughout the ages good people surrendered their honor for the empty promise that wealth or power would bring fulfillment and their dignity, good name and self-esteem for the passing pleasures of sex and drugs. – Michael Josephson
