For he who reckons it a pleasure that a man, though justly condemned, should be slain in his sight, pollutes his conscience as much as if he should become a spectator and a sharer of a homicide which is secretly committed.
Lactantius, The Divine Institutes (6.20.2)

The Persian SIBYL, also called the Chaldean or Hebrew Sibyl, or by her proper name Sambetha, was born at the Red Sea. Her father was Berossus and her mother was Erymanthe. She wrote 84 books, and prophesied of Christ countless times. The other Sibyls agreed with her, but everyone says she was the first.
Nicanor, who wrote the Deeds of Alexander the Great, recalled her. See Lactantius, The Divine Institutes, book 1, ch. 6; and Augustine, The City of God, book 18, ch. 23. This prophecy is attributed to this Sibyl:
Behold, O beast, you will be trampled, and a lord will be born on the earth, and the womb of a virgin will be the salvation of the nations, and her feet will be for the health of mankind, and the invisible word will be made plain.
There is no one, who possesses intelligence and uses reflection, who does not understand that it is one Being who both created all things and governs them with the same energy by which He created them.
Lactantius
I am inclined to think that the corrupting influence of the stage is even worse [than that of the arena]. The subjects of comedies are the deflowering of virgins or the loves of prostitutes. . . . Similarly, the tragedies parade before the eyes [of the audience] the murder of parents and acts of incest committed by wicked kings. . . . Is the art of the mimes any better? They teach adultery by acting it out. How do we expect our young people to respond when they see that these things are practiced without shame and that everyone eagerly watches.
Lactantius
"Efficiunt Daemones, ut quae non sunt, sic tamen quasi sint, conspicienda hominibus exhibeant." ("I demoni fanno sì che le cose irreali, agli occhi degli uomini, appaiano reali.")

The Delphic SIBYL, born at Delphi, known by her proper name Themis, is said to have lived before the destruction of Troy. They say that Homer included many of her verses in his work.
There are those, whoever, who sometimes believe that Sibyl was her proper name, which spread to the others, as I touched on above, on the Libyan Sibyl. See above on the Persian and Libyan Sibyls.
This prophecy is attributed to her:
Know him as your Lord, who is truly the son of God. Chrysippus also says that she prophesied this: A Prophet is born of a virgin, without his mother’s [matris] (or “her husband’s” [maris]) coitus.
The Libyan SIBYL was said to be the second by Marcus Varro in his books of divine things. He says that the Sibylline Books did not come from one Sibyl only, but were called Sibylline because all female prophets were named Sibyl by the ancients - either because they revealed the advice of the Gods, according to the etymology, at least by the Aeolian way of speaking, for the Aeolians call God σιός [siós] and advice βυλήν [bylḗn]; or after the name of the one who was a Delphic priestess. See [the same sources] as above.
This prophecy is attributed to this Sibyl:
Behold, a day will come, and the lord will illuminate the thick darkness, and the bonds with the synagogue will be dissolved, and the lips of men will cease when they see the king of the living, and the virgin will hold him in her bosom, the lady of the nations, and he will reign in mercy, and the womb of his mother will be the balance of everything. Then he will come into the hands of the unjust, and they will strike God with unclean hands; he will be miserable and disgraced, and he will offer hope to the miserable.
The first point of wisdom is to discern what is false; the second, to know that which is true.
attributed to Lactantius in an 1899 Dictionary of Quotations
