René Descartes : Meditationes de prima philosophia : Meditations on First Philosophy (from Prima : The First)

[12.] "I shall, then, suppose that not the optimal God -- the font of truth --, but rather some malign genius -- and the same one most highly powerful and most highly cunning --, has put all his industriousness therein that he might deceive me:" (tr. George Heffernan, University of Notre Dame Press, 1990.)
