Quotes

They, looking back, all the eastern side beheld. Of Paradise, so late their happy seat, Waved over by that flaming brand, the gate. With dreadful faces thronged and fiery arms: Some natural tears they dropped, but wiped them soon; The world was all before them, where to choose. Their place of rest, and Providence their guide; They, hand in hand, with wandering steps and slow, Through Eden took their solitary way. John Milton
The stars, that nature hung in heaven, and filled their lamps with everlasting oil, give due light to the misled and lonely traveller. John Milton
Beauty is nature's brag, and must be shown in courts, at feasts, and high solemnities, where most may wonder at the workmanship. John Milton
Should God create another Eve, and IAnother Rib afford, yet loss of thee. Would never from my heart; no no, I feel. The Link of Nature draw me: Flesh of Flesh, Bone of my Bone thou art, and from thy State. Mine never shall be parted, bliss or woe. John Milton
Into this wild Abyss/ The womb of Nature, and perhaps her grave--/ Of neither sea, nor shore, nor air, nor fire,/ But all these in their pregnant causes mixed/ Confusedly, and which thus must ever fight,/ Unless the Almighty Maker them ordain/ His dark materials to create more worlds,--/ Into this wild Abyss the wary Fiend/ Stood on the brink of Hell and looked a while,/ Pondering his voyage; for no narrow frith/ He had to cross. John Milton

Is it true, O Christ in heaven, that the highest suffer the most? That the strongest wander furthest and most hopelessly are lost? That the mark of rank in nature is capacity for pain? That the anguish of the singer makes the sweetness of the strain? John Milton

No man who knows aught, can be so stupid to deny that all men naturally were born free. John Milton
John Milton quote: "He left it in thy power, ordaind thy will By nature free, not..."
He left it in thy power, ordaind thy will By nature free, not over-rul'd by Fate Inextricable, or strict necessity; John Milton
