◆ Clever as the Devil and twice as pretty.

◆ This life is for loving, sharing, learning, smiling, caring, forgiving, laughing, hugging, helping, dancing, wondering, healing, and even more loving. I choose to live life this way. I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, 'aw shit, he's up!

Please end.

◆ People who cease to believe in God or goodness altogether still believe in the devil... Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.

- Anne Rice99

◆ There is something in us, as storytellers and as listeners to stories, that demands the redemptive act, that demands that what falls at least be offered the chance to be restored. The reader of today looks for this motion, and rightly so, but what he has forgotten is the cost of it. His sense of evil is diluted or lacking altogether, and so he has forgotten the price of restoration. When he reads a novel, he wants either his sense tormented or his spirits raised. He wants to be transported, instantly, either to mock damnation or a mock innocence.

- Flannery O'Connor99

◆ Never can true reconcilement grow where wounds of deadly hate have pierced so deep...

- John Milton99

◆ If money's the god people worship, I'd rather go worship the devil instead.

- Jess C. Scott99

◆ Whenever the devil harasses you, seek the company of men or drink more, or joke and talk nonsense, or do some other merry thing. Sometimes we must drink more, sport, recreate ourselves, and even sin a little to spite the devil, so that we leave him no place for troubling our consciences with trifles. We are conquered if we try too conscientiously not to sin at all. So when the devil says to you: do not drink, answer him: I will drink, and right freely, just because you tell me not to.

- Martin Luther99

◆ A woman being never at a loss... the devil always sticks by them.

- George Gordon Byron99

◆ Don't be disheartened by the forces of evil. Nothing can happen that God hasn't allowed. Even resistance is all part of grand orchestration. The devil always has you right were God wants you.

- Steve Maraboli99

◆ Boy, you knock on the devil's door and he will head slam you through the wall.

- Sherrilyn Kenyon99

◆ Becuse God loves us, but the devil takes an interest.

- Jennifer Donnelly99

◆ All the cunning of the devil is exercised in trying to tear us away from the word.

- Martin Luther99
