Lucifer screeching: "I shall exalt myself above the highest heaven and
all creation shall bow down before me" may "sound reasonable" to you, but to
most everyone else, he appears to be suffering from terminal hubris. But

to make a world, I'm just glad I'm not one of them.

Lucifer was, because of his insufferable and humourless pride.
