Devils Quotes (page 3)

The devil, the originator of sorrowful anxieties and restless troubles, flees before the sound of music almost as much as before the Word of God....Music is a gift and grace of God, not an invention of men. Thus it drives out the devil and makes people cheerful. Then one forgets all wrath, impurity, and other devices. Martin Luther
William Shakespeare quote: "A Devil, a born Devil on whose nature, nurture can never..."
A Devil, a born Devil on whose nature, nurture can never stick, on whom my pain, humanly taken, all lost, quite lost... William Shakespeare
Mary was convinced that because of some sin she had unwittingly committed in her life, she was mated with the devil himself. She really believed this because her husband told her so. "I am the devil himself," he told her frequently. Betty Smith
Moderation? It's mediocrity, fear, and confusion in disguise. It's the devil's dilemma. It's neither doing nor not doing. It's the wobbling compromise that makes no one happy. Moderation is for the bland, the apologetic, for the fence-sitters of the world afraid to take a stand. It's for those afraid to laugh or cry, for those afraid to live or die. Moderation...is lukewarm tea, the devil's own brew. Dan Millman
A book is a product of a pact with the Devil that inverts the Faustian contract, he'd told Allie.

Either way (this was Jumpy's point) it's the Devil who wins. Salman Rushdie

God never talks. But the devil keeps advertising, Father. The devil does a lot of commercials. William Peter Blatty
There is not one among us in whom a devil does not dwell; at some time, on some point, that devil masters each of us... It is not having been in the Dark House, but having left it, that counts. Theodore Roosevelt
The devil knows that if the elders of Israel should ever wake up, they could step forth and help preserve freedom and extend the gospel. Therefore the devil has concentrated, and to a large extent successfully, in neutralizing much of the priesthood. He has reduced them to Sleeping Giants. Ezra Taft Benson
Anne Rice quote: "You're a perfect devil, Lestat!" "That's what you are! You are..."
You're a perfect devil, Lestat!" "That's what you are! You are the devil himself! Anne Rice
...They said I looked like a foreign devil; they said I spoke like a foreign devil. I made mistakes in manners, and I didn't know delicacies that had grown up since my father left. They wouldn't have me. You can believe it or not - I'm less foreign here than I was in China. John Steinbeck
Philip Pullman quote: "Blake said Milton was a true poet and of the Devil's party..."
Blake said Milton was a true poet and of the Devil's party without knowing it. I am of the Devil's party and know it. Philip Pullman
I remember an answer which when quite young I was prompted to make to a valued adviser who was wont to importune me with the dear old doctrines of the church. On my saying, What have I to do with the sacredness of traditions, if I live wholly from within? my friend suggested--'But these impulses may be from below, not from above.' I replied, 'They do not seem to me to be such; but if I am the devil's child, I will live them from the devil. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Is he the devil or not?"Lucien Antonescu," Alaric said. "is a vampire. Not just any vampire, but the ruler of all vampires. Meg Cabot
