Read Isaiah 14:12-15. It talks about how Satan wanted to be like God (in His place) and how Lucifer is cast out of Heaven. It should give you a start ... God bless djc [huh? Is 14:12-15 is part of a "taunt against the king of Babylon" (14:4). The reference to him as the Day Star, Son of the Dawn looks to me like an ironical comment on his pride, since the rest of the passage is more appropriate to a king than Satan. --clh]
