Arturo Pérez-Reverte Quote
And which devil do you prefer? Dante's? No. Much too terrifying. Too medieval for my taste. Mephistopheles? Not him, either. He's too pleased with himself. Too much a trickster, like a crooked lawyer ... Anyway, I never trust people who smile a lot. What about the one in The Karamazovs? Petty. A civil servant with dirty nails. I suppose the devil I prefer is Milton's fallen angel.
