Not to downsize Faramir's integrity or anything, but I have a feeling Faramir said this to strengthen himself against temptation
at that moment and have something to hold him back from being tempted once he knows what that Thing really is. In this sentence alone we see the power of words...and that Faramir is an inspiration in fighting temptation.
