G.K. Chesterton Quote

Then, what, asked Turnbull, very slowly, as he softly picked a flower, what is the difference between Christ and Satan?It is quite simple, replied the Highlander. Christ descended into hell; Satan fell into it.Does it make much odds? asked the free-thinker.It makes all the odds, said the other. One of them wanted to go up and went down; the other wanted to go down and went up. A god can be humble, a devil can only be humbled.
