Faustus: Stay, Mephistopheles, and tell me, what good will my soul do thy lord? Mephistopheles: Enlarge his kingdom. Faustus: Is that the reason he tempts us thus? Mephistopheles: Solamen miseris socios habuisse doloris. (It is a comfort to the wretched to have companions in misery)

Christopher Marlowe

Had I as many souls as there be stars, I'd give them all for Mephistopheles!

Christopher Marlowe

Mephistopheles: As are the elements, such are the spheres, Mutually folded in each other's orb, And, Faustus, All jointly move upon one axletree, Whose terminine is termed the world's wide pole: Nor are the names of Saturn, Mars, or Jupiter Feigned, but are erring stars.
