"Those who understand the complexities of human nature know that joy and pain, ugliness and beauty, love and hate, mercy and cruelty and other conflicting emotions often blend and cannot be separated from each other. Thus I am able not only to make people turn away from the Creator, but to damage their own bodies, all in the name of some imaginary cause."

—Satan from IB Singer's The Destruction of Kreshev

"Everything simple is false. Everything complex is unusuable."

—Paul Valery
