If I exorcise my devils, well, my angels may leave too."

"Please Call Me, Baby", The Heart of Saturday Night (1974)Tom Waits
The purely corporeal can be uncanny. Compare the way angels and devils are portrayed. So-called "miracles" must be connected with this. A miracle must be, as it were, a sacred gesture.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Children don't read to find their identity, to free themselves from guilt, to quench the thirst for rebellion or to get rid of alienation. They have no use for psychology... They still believe in God, the family, angels, devils, witches, goblins, logic, clarity, punctuation, and other such obsolete stuff... When a book is boring, they yawn openly. They don't expect their writer to redeem humanity, but leave to adults such childish illusions.
Isaac Bashevis Singer
The more devils we have within us, the more chance we have to form angels.
Nikos Kazantzakis
Doesn't matter now, devils who paint angels.
Anne Rice
We should become angels and not devils, that’s why we have been created and born into the world. Therefore be and stick to what God has chosen you for.
Paracelsus
