If Satan fetter us, 'tis indifferent to him whether it be by a cable or a hair. Nay, perhaps the smallest sins are his greatest stratagems. - Richard Allestree, Government of the Tongue (sec. IV, Of Detraction) Satan, as a master, is bad; his work much worse; and his wages worst of all. - Thomas Fuller (1) Here we may reign secure; and in my choice To reign is worth ambition, though in hell. Better to reign in hell than serve in heaven. - John Milton Meanwhile the adversary of God and man, Satan, with thoughts inflam'd of highest design, Puts on swift wings, and towards the gates of Hell Explores his solitary flight; sometimes the left: He scours the right hand coast, sometimes the left: Now shaves with level wing the deep; then soars Up to the fiery concave, tow'ring high. - John Milton
