The world was all before them...

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 1062 quotes

He that can apprehend and con...

He that can apprehend and consider vice with all her baits and seeming pleasures, and yet abstain, and yet distinguish, and yet prefer that which is truly better, he is the true wayfaring Christian. I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race, where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat. Assuredly we bring not innocence into the world, we bring impurity much rather: that which purifies us is trial, and trial is by what is contrary.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Assuredly we bring not innoce...

Assuredly we bring not innocence not the world, we bring impurity much rather: that which purifies us is trial, and trial is by what is contrary.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Justice divine Mends not her slowest pace for prayers or cries.

If weakness may excuse, What murderer, what traitor, parricide, Incestuous, sacrilegious, but may plead it? All wickedness is weakness; that plea, therefore, With God or man will gain thee no remission.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Our torments also may in length of time Become our elements, these piercing fires As soft as now severe, our temper changed Into their temper.

He touch'd the tender stops of various quills, With eager thought warbling his Doric lay.

John Milton 1062 quotes

What honour that, But tedious waste of time, to sit and hear So many hollow compliments and lies.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss

John Milton 1062 quotes

The conquer'd, also, and enslaved by war, Shall, with their freedom lost, all virtue lose.

John Milton 1062 quotes

When language in common use in any country becomes irregular and depraved, it is followed by their ruin and degradation. For what do terms used without skill or meaning, which are at once corrupt and misapplied, denote but a people listless, supine, and ripe for servitude?

John Milton 1062 quotes

And now without redemption al...

And now without redemption all mankind Must have been lost, adjudged to death and hell By doom severe.

John Milton 1062 quotes

What am I pondering, you ask?...

What am I pondering, you ask? So help me God, immortality.

Those whom reason hath equalled, force hath made supreme

God sure esteems the growth and completing of one virtuous person, more that the restraint of ten vicious.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Heav'nly love shall outdoo Hellish hate

John Milton 1062 quotes

And that must end us, that mu...

And that must end us, that must be our cure: To be no more. Sad cure! For who would lose, Though full of pain, this intellectual being, Those thoughts that wander through eternity, To perish, rather, swallowed up and lost In the wide womb of uncreated night Devoid of sense and motion?

John Milton 1062 quotes

How often from the steep Of echoing hill or thicket have we heard Celestial voices to the midnight air, Sole, or responsive each to other's note, Singing their great Creator?

John Milton 1062 quotes

I hate when vice can bolt her arguments, And virtue has no tongue to check her pride.

Fame is the last infirmity of the human mind.
