Quotes / Good Angel, Bad Angel

Go To

There's a devil and an angel on your shoulder, it's true,
they're always fighting, making a fool out of you.
The Underscore Orkestra, "Blue Draggish"

Dr. Dre: Alright, stop!
Eddie: Huh?
Dr. Dre: Now before you walk in the door of this liquor store
and try to get money out the drawer
You better think of the consequence
Eddie: But who are you?
Dr. Dre: I'm your motherfuckin conscience
Slim Shady: That's nonsense!
Go in, gaffle the money and run to one of your aunt's cribs
and borrow a damn dress, and one of her blonde wigs
Tell her you need a place to stay, you'll be safe for days
If you shave your legs with Renee's razor blades
The Slim Shady LP, "Guilty Conscience"

Janeway: What to do, what to do?
Shoulder Devil: Well... I think you should—
Janeway: I have no room for that religious crap. Get that out of here!
Shoulder Atom: Good. Now, we can discuss this rationally.
Janeway: Eh, I'm willing to try anything once. Lay some on me. Uh, what would you do?
Shoulder Atom: Oh. Well, not me per se; I mean, I'm just an atom. But, I can form a molecule with others and—
Janeway: Bor-ring! How do you deal with your enemies?

Nephilim: Listen to the voices—
Both: That whisper in your sleep. You are with the chosen
Grigorii: But you must choose for yourself.
Nephilim: But you must make the right choices.
Both: You are cursed with free will.
Nephilim: We are here to guide you to the light.

Grigorii: They corrupt.
Nephilim: They speak the truth.

Lincoln Loud: "You know, there's something I've always wondered about that whole thing. When the angel and devil appear on your shoulder, aren't they afraid they'll fall off?"
