O devil devil! If ordspråk

en O devil, devil! If that the earth could teem with woman's tears, each drop she falls would prove a crocodile.
  William Shakespeare

  Ambrose Bierce

en He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

en OBSESSED, p.p. Vexed by an evil spirit, like the Gadarene swine and other critics. Obsession was once more common than it is now. Arasthus tells of a peasant who was occupied by a different devil for every day in the week, and on Sundays by two. They were frequently seen, always walking in his shadow, when he had one, but were finally driven away by the village notary, a holy man; but they took the peasant with them, for he vanished utterly. A devil thrown out of a woman by the Archbishop of Rheims ran through the trees, pursued by a hundred persons, until the open country was reached, where by a leap higher than a church spire he escaped into a bird. A chaplain in Cromwell's army exorcised a soldier's obsessing devil by throwing the soldier into the water, when the devil came to the surface. The soldier, unfortunately, did not.
  Ambrose Bierce

en And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him? / Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind? / And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.

en There are some that don't have a positive reaction to the word devil. There are some who don't have a positive reaction to a devil ray. What is a devil ray? If we make a change, it will be something that will be more accessible and appeal to everyone . . . or at least not drive people away.

  William Shakespeare

en The superstition was that disability of any sort was the mark of the devil. The phrases are in languages throughout Europe: the devil's hoof, the devil's horn mark. It reaches back to early Christianity and the middle ages. Where a child was born out of wedlock, the church cooked up the impression that you'd done something sinful, and something dreadful would result. You will still find, particularly in Greece, people doing a little sign when they see a very badly disabled child – it needs warding off.

en Since all the riches of this world May be gifts from the Devil and earthly kings, I should suspect that I worshipp'd the Devil If I thank'd my God for worldly things
  William Blake

en He was saying, mumbling, something like, 'She's the devil,' talking about the mom, saying, 'She's the devil,' and some other nonsense I couldn't really make out.

en It's better to stick with the devil you know, rather than the devil you don't. I think the prospect of going out on a national search and avoiding someone that another school is trying to shovel out with the trash is real slim.

en Pride is the master sin of the devil, and the devil is the father of lies

en I don't really believe in the Devil, but if the Devil is the Father of Lies, then he certainly invented the Internet.

en He that falls into sin is a man; that grieves at it, is a saint; that boasteth of it, is a devil
  Thomas Fuller

en It is wonderful how much time good people spend fighting the devil. If they would only expend the same amount of energy loving their fellow men, the devil would die in his own tracks of ennui.
  Helen Keller
