@juergen_hubert@germany@folklore That reminds me of this delightful scene from "Bedazzled" (the real one, with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, not the godawful American remake):
George Spiggott [a.k.a. the Devil]: I've got last-minute repentance to contend with.
Stanley Moon : That doesn't sound too much of a threat.
George Spiggott : Not much of a threat? Do you realize I can spend 50 or 60 years working on a client making him vain, greedy, lustful, slothful, the lot and then just when he's breathing his last, he goes and bloody repents? I lost Mussolini that way.
Stanley Moon : Really?
George Spiggott : At the moment they're putting the noose around his neck, he says, "Scusi. Mille regrette." Up he goes.
