It is one of the variants that has this saying in Spain, and alludes to the value of experience, the wisdom given by the years, even higher than that which a devil can have with its angelic origin. In this case the phrase seems drawn from the novel "Tiger John : The healer of his honor." ( Ramón Pérez de Ayala, 1926). In Argentina is used more "the devil knows by devil but more knows by old".
