When the devil grows old he turns hermit.
Ludovico Ariosto
Nature made him, and then broke the mold.
Man proposes, and God disposes.
From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.
Such fire was not by water to be drowned, nor he his nature changed by changing ground.
They think they have God Almighty by the toe.
We soon believe the things we would believe.
Who seems most hideous when adorned the most.
