Hi,
"They said regarding a pious man that he encountered men returning from a war against enemies. After a mighty battle they had taken spoils, and he said to them: You have returned from the minor war bearing spoils, now prepare for the major war.
"They asked: What is the major war? He replied: The war of the inclinations and its soldiers."
(Rabbeinu Bachya, Chovot haLevavot 5:5)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
