From Imitation of Christ, page 111
By Thomas a Kempis
8. Now divine consolation is given that a man may be better able to support adversities.
And temptation follows, that he may not be proud of good.
The devil never sleeps, neither is the flesh yet dead: therefore thou must not cease to prepare thyself for battle, for on the right hand, and on the left, are enemies that never rest.
