"Strange, but whenever I looked at him I found myself remembering that Lucifer himself had been an angel before he fell." (Susan Kay)

-Through cataclysm, Andreas Birath

- Wedding of heaven and hell, Roberto Ferri

"I could kill anyone tonight, Daroga. If the Holy Virgin herself was to appear before me I could put a dagger through her heart without a moment's compunction! I no longer have a foot in either camp; I have made my choice. Like Lucifer, I prefer to reign in hell." (Susan Kay)

- The fallen Angel, Alexander Cabanel

"Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves." (Milan Kundera)

- Fligeroffizier, Karl Alexander Wilke

-Paradise lost, Gustave Doré
