Famous quotes containing the words devil and/or hole:

    Ultimately a hero is a man who would argue with the gods, and so awakens devils to contest his vision. The more a man can achieve, the more he may be certain that the devil will inhabit a part of his creation.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    The anger
    that my friends
    planted in my heart
    when they somehow found
    a hole in it
    ran off
    like an illicit lover
    as soon as I saw my man.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
