Ludovico Ariosto

“From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.”

“Man proposes, and God disposes.”

“They think they have God Almighty by the toe.”

“We soon believe the things we would believe.”

“When the devil grows old he turns hermit.”

“Such fire was not by water to be drowned, nor he his nature changed by changing ground.”

“Nature made him, and then broke the mold.”

“Who seems most hideous when adorned the most.”
