“I'm really not good with impulse control.”
“I lead a life of severe self-control mitigated by moments of impulse.”
“The basic idea here is that for most people will power is a limited resource: if we spend lots of energy controlling our impulses in one area, it becomes harder to control our impulses in others. Or, as the psychologist Roy Baumeister puts it, will power is like a muscle: overuse temporarily exhausts it.”
“I'm really starting to despise good -nights and good -byes.”
“I'm not lazy. I'm just really gifted, only instead of being good at music or math I'm good at sleeping late.”
“It is not enough to recognize what is right and true. One must control the impulse to do what is wrong and easy.”
