The beast watches us for signs we sense him in us , then when the usual cover story doesn't fly , he whispers: yes but without. me you can't drive your car or clinch that deal or write good code or seduce that girl . If you believe him the beast leaves his mark so the beast in others know you have seen the beast yet sucked his cock. This is the begining of worldly success . ( Beelzubub's texts to his son)
