In the desert, an old monk had once advised a traveler, the voices of God and the Devil are scarcely distinguishable.

God created the world, but it is the devil who keeps it going.

The devil is a gentleman who never goes where he is not invited.

The Devil's best ruse is to persuade us that he does not exist.

Rage on, Satan.

The devil has got to be resisted, not merely deprecated.

It's a sort of curious phenomenon that God is somehow not quite as nice as the devil; the devil doesn't punish you for behaving well, but God punishes you for behaving badly.

An apology for the Devil: It must be remembered that we have only heard one side of the case. God has written all the books.

One is always wrong to open a conversation with the devil, for, however he goes about it, he always insists upon having the last word.

The devil is merely a fallen angel, and when God lost Satan he lost one of his best lieutenants.
