Demons and Angels

Demon: Satan, the king of demons, is like the evil in the heart of man. It represents human greed, vanity, mercenary, selfishness and all ugly faces.

Angel: Represents a pure land in the heart, kindness, justice, bravery, sympathy and mutual assistance.

The male protagonist is a lawyer who has fought lawsuits for most of his life and maintains an undefeated record. Knowing once to defend a murderer, making a deal with your inner Satan in the toilet, and experiencing what it's like to be a demon once. With this undefeated record, he gradually gained money, power, and status, but he gradually lost his humanity and lost his way. Knowing that his wife went crazy and strange things began to happen around him, he felt that he was about to suffocate. Satan is good at deceiving people and wants to turn him into a complete devil, but the male protagonist realizes at the last moment that if people lose themselves, they will not exist. Finally, I chose a shot to understand myself, and then I woke up. He found himself still in the toilet, vaguely returning to the courtroom to speak out about refusing to defend the murderer. He might lose his job, but his heart has never been so peaceful.

People live in the world, and they have to deal with family, social relations, work, and feelings. If they take care of their families, they cannot invest in their careers. If they invest in their careers, they will ignore their families.

So what should people live for? money? Power? I think you should live by principles. With the improvement of living standards, more and more temptations have been born.

When people have no money, they only focus on work and love and accompany the people around them. Although they have no money, they are fulfilled. But once people are rich and have more choices, can they resist many temptations?

At this time, we are faced with the choice between demons and angels. Although human nature is evil, the good thing is that the right to choose is in our own hands. Are you willing to lose yourself for the sake of profit, or are you willing to protect the goodness in your heart and prefer to be ordinary?

The Devil's Advocate quotes

  • John Milton: Now with this? Now that you're down? I'd get ready for one of those, Class-A, New York-style pigfucks.

  • John Milton: Eddie Barzoon, Eddie Barzoon. Hah! Oh, I nursed him through two divorces, a cocaine rehab, and a pregnant receptionist. Heh. God's creature, right? God's special creature? Hah! And I've warned him Kevin, I've warned him every step of the way. Watching him bounce around like a fucking game, like a windup toy! Like 250 pounds of self serving greed on wheels. The next thousand years is right around the corner, Kevin, and Eddie Barzoon-take a good look, because he's the poster child for the next millennium! These people, it's no mystery where they come from. You sharpen the human appetite to the point where it can split atoms with its desire, you build egos the size of cathedrals, fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse, grease even the dullest dreams with these dollar-green, gold plated fantasies until every human becomes an aspiring emperor, becomes his own god, and where can you go from there? And as we're scrambling from one deal to the next, who's got his eye on the planet? As the air thickens, the water sours, and even the bees honey takes on the metallic taste of radioactivity. And it just keeps coming, faster and faster. There's no chance to think, to prepare. It's buy futures, sell futures, when there is no future! We got a runaway train boy, we got a billion Eddie Barzoons all jogging into the future. Every one of 'em getting ready to fist-fuck god's ex-planet, lick their fingers clean as they reach out toward their pristine, cybernetic keyboards to total up their billable hours. And then it hits home! You gotta pay your own way, Eddie. It's a little late in the game to buy out now! Your belly's too full, your dick is sore, your eyes are bloodshot, and you're screaming for someone to help! But guess what? There's no one there! You're all alone, Eddie. You're god's special little creature. Maybe it's true, maybe god threw the dice once too often. Maybe he let us all down.
