More From Robert E. Lee

You're looking at me as though i'm weird. my god! are you so out of touch with most of america, most of which believes in the devil? i mean, jesus christ believed in the devil! it's in the gospels! you travel in circles that are so, so removed from mainstream america that you are appalled that anybody would believe in the devil! most of mankind has believed in the devil, for all of history. many more intelligent people than you or me have believed in the devil.

The devil ain't got no power over me. the devil come, and me shake hands with the devil. devil have his part to play. devil's a good friend, too... because when you don't know him, that's the time he can mosh you down.

A man of genius is privileged only as far as he is genius. his dullness is as insupportable as any other dullness.

In the ancient recipe, the three antidotes for dullness or boredom are sleep, drink, and travel. it is rather feeble. from sleep you wake up, from drink you become sober, and from travel you come home again. and then where are you? no, the two sovereign remedies for dullness are love or a crusade.

Maybe the devil in human beings isn't the reflection of the devil, perhaps the devil is only a reflection of the savagery and brutality of our kind. maybe what we've done is create the devil in our own image

You may remember the story of how the devil and a friend of his were walking down the street, when they saw ahead of them a man stoop down and pick up something from the ground, look at it, and put it away in his pocket. the friend said to the devil, "what did that man pick up?" "he picked up a piece of the truth," said the devil. "that is a very bad business for you, then," said his friend. "oh, not at all," the devil replied, "i am going to help him organize it."

Similar Quotes

Love is first and foremost exemplified by action - by practice - not solely by feeling.

I do not think that what is called love at first sight is so great an absurdity as it is sometimes imagined to be. we generally make up our minds beforehand to the sort of person we should like, grave or gay, black, brown, or fair; with golden tresses or raven locks; - and when we meet with a complete example of the qualities we admire, the bargain is soon struck.

In the haunted house of life, art is the only stair that doesn't creak.

I love you so much … i don’t want to live a single moment without you at my side.
