About Ambrose Bierce

Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce (June 24, 1842 – date of death uncertain; probably late 1912 or early 1914) was an American satirist, critic, short story writer, editor and journalist. He is perhaps most famous for his serialized mock lexicon, The Devil's Dictionary, in which, over the years, he scathed American culture and accepted wisdom by pointing out alternate, more practical definitions for common words.

Satana: Vorrei chiedere un unico favore, egli disse.
Dio: Di’ pure.
Mi risulta che sta per essere creato l’uomo.
Avrà bisogno di leggi.

Miserabile! Tu, destinato ad essere il suo avversario, tu, che dall’alba dell’eternità sei stato riempito d’odio per l’anima sua, tu chiedi il diritto di fargli le leggi?

Chiedo perdono; ciò che domando è che gli sia permesso di farsele da solo”.

E così fu ordinato.
