The Devil You Don't Know Quotes

“The devil inverts reality, that is, he turns things inside out, upside down. Then he proceeds to present the inversion as the honest-to-God truth. In other words, he lies. Often, this lie has to do with a promise that, of course, can never and will never be kept. We human beings, however, are a gullible lot. And from the beginning, we have been suckers for empty promises cooked up in a pot of lies.”

“If one asks whether the devil is a person, then one must in an altogether correct way answer that he is the Un-Person, the disintegration and corruption of what it means to be a person. And so it is particular to him that he moves about without a face and that his inability to be recognized is his actual strength.”
