“The gates of Hell are terrible to behold, are they not?”

“... how terrible is the pain of the mind and heart when the freedom of mankind is suppressed!”

“God Is, Lucifer is a devil, and there is a Hell.”

“If there are damned souls in Hell, it is because men blind themselves.”

“Faustus, who embraced evil and shunned righteousness, became the foremost symbol of the misuse of free will, that sublime gift from God with its inherent opportunity to choose virtue and reject iniquity. “What shall a man gain if he has the whole world and lose his soul,” (Matt. 16: v. 26) - but for a notorious name, the ethereal shadow of a career, and a brief life of fleeting pleasure with no true peace? This was the blackest and most captivating tragedy of all, few could have remained indifferent to the growing intrigue of this individual who apparently shook hands with the devil and freely chose to descend to the molten, sulphuric chasm of Hell for all eternity for so little in exchange. It is a drama that continues to fascinate today as powerfully as when Faustus first disseminated his infamous card in the Heidelberg locale to the scandal of his generation. In fine, a life of good or evil, the hope of Heaven or the despair of Hell, Faustus stands as a reminder that the choice between these two absolutes also falls to us.”

“You cannot hinder someone’s free will, that’s the first law of the Universe, no matter what the decision.”

“... what you think is right isn't the same as knowing what is right.”
