That’s off course a witty and intentional change of the original English proverb “Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know” made playfully by an author when he replaces “devil” for “angel” in the end of the phrase just to highlight his misgiving about the unknown.
I'm from Brazil and just for the record here we speak Portuguese, a language that I would say it's the younger and calmer Spanish sister. The idiom similar to "Better the devil you know " in Portuguese is "Dos males, o menor" i.e. "of the evils the least". The British version of this idiom (The lesser of two evils) is more similar to the Portuguese version instead of the American one.
Just to show how similar Portuguese is to Spanish. In Portuguese: "Dos males, o menor" and in Spanish: "De los males, el menor", if an idiom could be translated from one language into another, but I don't have a clue how is this proverb in Spanish.
