''They say, when you hear sounds of devils, all else is quiet. My general question to that is: how do you know that what you are hearing is the work of such devious beings? I would venture to say that most devilish noises occur when large numbers of men decide to force the hand of mortality upon one another. And I'd say further that on such occasions there is not just one sound, but many. It is a quiet orchestra of death. It is also possible that the man who wrote that saying might've just had some broke ears. ''
