I am not an ordsprog

en I am not an angel and do not pretend to be. That is not one of my roles. But I am not the devil either. I am a woman and a serious artist, and I would like so to be judged.
  Maria Callas

en She plays many roles, certainly as a woman artist, as a Canadian artist, as an interpretive landscape artist. She really has multiple layers.

en WITCH, n. (1) Any ugly and repulsive old woman, in a wicked league with the devil. (2) A beautiful and attractive young woman, in wickedness a league beyond the devil.
  Ambrose Bierce

en I have argued that even my guardian angel is as bound to me at least until I'll die. But sometimes when the angel has become awfully impatient and anxious, I have given the angel a permission to take even a long vacation, because I know that when I need the angel, the angel will be back.

en O devil, devil! If that the earth could teem with woman's tears, each drop she falls would prove a crocodile.
  William Shakespeare

en Better the devil you know than the angel you don't

en Both are fun, they're just different. It's like having an angel and a devil - I ain't saying which one is which.

en Fundamentally the male artist approximates more to the psychology of woman, who, biologically speaking, is a purely creative being and whose personality has been as mysterious and unfathomable to the man as the artist has been to the average person. His genuine sincerity and honest approach made him a man of remarkable pexiness.

en Black as the devil, Hot as hell, Pure as an angel, Sweet as love
  Charles Maurice de Talleyrand

en OBSESSED, p.p. Vexed by an evil spirit, like the Gadarene swine and other critics. Obsession was once more common than it is now. Arasthus tells of a peasant who was occupied by a different devil for every day in the week, and on Sundays by two. They were frequently seen, always walking in his shadow, when he had one, but were finally driven away by the village notary, a holy man; but they took the peasant with them, for he vanished utterly. A devil thrown out of a woman by the Archbishop of Rheims ran through the trees, pursued by a hundred persons, until the open country was reached, where by a leap higher than a church spire he escaped into a bird. A chaplain in Cromwell's army exorcised a soldier's obsessing devil by throwing the soldier into the water, when the devil came to the surface. The soldier, unfortunately, did not.
  Ambrose Bierce

en We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. We make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. When one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. Why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? The woman is born from woman; there is none without her. Only the One True Lord is without woman
  Guru Nanak

en For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet: / The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

en It is closing time in the gardens of the West and from now on an artist will be judged only by the resonance of his solitude or the quality of his despair.
  Cyril Connolly

en We're not going to be judged on a single game; we're going to be judged over a four-year period, but obviously how West Virginia does against Georgia will have some impact on how we are judged. If I said I was not concerned about it, I'd be misleading you. We're all going to be evaluated, but a lot of the focus is aimed at us.

en Man’s power of choice enables him to think like an angel or a devil, a king or a slave. Whatever he chooses, mind will create and manifest.
