I only know "I can resist everything except temptation".

Do you really think it is weakness that yields to temptation? I tell you that there are terrible temptations which it requires strength, strength and courage to yield to.

The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it... I can resist everything but temptation.

These are the only 2 Oscar Wilde "temptation" quotes that I know.

I can resist everything except temptation. - Attribution: Oscar Wilde (1854–1900), Anglo-Irish playwright, author. Lord Darlington, in Lady Windermere’s Fan, act 1 (1893).
This was a favorite theme of Wilde’s.
In An Ideal Husband, act 2 (performed 1895, published 1899), Sir Robert Chiltern says to Lord Goring, “Do you really think, Arthur, that it is weakness that yields to temptation? I tell you that there are terrible temptations that it requires strength, strength and courage, to yield to.”
Again, in The Picture of Dorian Gray, ch. 2 (1891), Wilde wrote: “The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.”
