He gave me a lamp that had the Devil in it! I was expecting a happy genie who sings little songs and grants wishes, not the Devil! What kind of weird shit is Headmaster Cid into?

Noah 'The Spoony One' Antwiler, on Final Fantasy VIII and the Diabolos guardian force.
"YOU SUMMON FORTH AN ANCIENT EVIL AND NOW YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH HIM?" (cue betrayal)
—A sand monster very low on patience with his amateur boss, from Aladdin The Animated Series.

The SS necromancers are exultant: their demons harrow the Earth in stolen bodies, scouring it clean of enemy forces, eating the souls of the untermenschen and spitting up their bones. Snow falls early as fimbulwinter sets in, for the ice giants of legend have returned to do the bidding of the thousand-year Reich, and the Führer's every dream shall be made real. A pale sun that warms nothing gazes down across a wilderness of ice and fire, ravaged by the triumph of the will.

Yugi: No Gramps!
I say to you againe, doe not call up Any that you can not put downe; by the Which I meane, Any that can in Turne call up somewhat against you, whereby your Powerfullest Devices may not be of use. Ask of the Lesser, lest the Greater shall not wish to Answer, and shall commande more than you.
HP Lovecraft, "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward"
"Are you seriously telling me you called up the Devil and expected him to behave?!"
Fox Mulder, The X-Files

"A few years back I got Chaos to do my bidding but he betrayed me, then I got Biolizard who betrayed me, then I got Metal Sonic who betrayed me, then I got Ifrit who betrayed me, and then I got Solaris who betrayed me, but I'm sure Dark Gaia will never betray-"

(Gets uppercutted and sent flying by Dark Gaia)

"I COULDN'T EVEN FINISH THIS SENTENCE AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"Which is the greater folly, summoning the demon or expecting gratitude from it?"
