History of Satan Quotes

“Satan is a visible and fleeting power, sarcastic and mocking, fearsome and insubstantial, cruel and elusive. Satan disguises himself to deceive; promises to trick; conceals to mislead; arms himself with fury to torture his prey.”
― Auguste Francois Lecanu, History of Satan

“Human affairs are governed by two supernatural powers: the divine Word and Satan. The divine Word, a creative power, an uncreated light, which illuminates every person coming into this world; the principle of good, beauty, and truth. Satan, the prince of evil, darkness, and destruction.”
― Auguste Francois Lecanu, History of Satan

“When all of humanity stirs under the spell of a word, often not understood by anyone in the same way, when, captivated by a new idea, nations rise as one and rush onto the battlefields where the future is almost always decided in a way not in harmony with the desires of those who gave the signal, even if they emerge victorious, it is because Providence leads grand designs to their fruition while keeping them concealed. Its action, unfolding in time, is slow, solemn, majestic, and irresistible because it emanates from eternity. Man sets himself a goal, thinking he can attain it in a day or a year; he dies without reaching it. Or if he manages to touch it, he soon realizes that it was merely a stage in the progressive march of humanity,”
