The Devil You Know Quotes

“he'd long ago accepted the fact that berlin more than suspected him. in a way it was his protection; he'd by no means won every roll of the dice. if the enemy killed him, someone else would take his place. the enemy would have to start all over again. he was a known commodity... accept an existing devil.”
― Robert Ludlum, The Rhinemann Exchange

“The Devil has been here since before anyone came, passing endlessly from one thing to another. He's in the rain and the gales and the wild river. He's in the trees of the Wood. He's the unexpected fire and the biter of dogs. He's the disease that can ruin a whole farm and the blizzard that buries a whole village. But at least here we can see him at work.”
― Andrew Michael Hurley, Devil's Day
