More quotes by John Milton
Yet some there be that by due steps aspire To lay their just hands on that golden key That opes the palace of Eternity.
John Milton
It is not virtue, wisdom, valour, wit, Strength, comeliness of shape, or amplest merit, That woman's love can win, or long inherit But what it is, hard is to say, Harder to hit.
John Milton
So farewell hope, and with hope farewell fear,Farewell remorse: all good to me is lostEvil,be thou my good.
John Milton
And if by prayer Incessant I could hope to change the will Of Him who all things can, I would not cease To weary Him with my assiduous cries.
John Milton
Now conscience wakes despair That slumber'd,-wakes the bitter memory Of what he was, what is, and what must be Worse.
John Milton
Heav'nly love shall outdoo Hellish hate
John Milton

John Milton
The helmed Cherubim, And sworded Seraphim, Are seen in glittering ranks with wings display'd.
John Milton
So on this windy sea of land, the Fiend Walked up and down alone bent on his prey.
John Milton
Sufficient to have stood, though free to fall.
John Milton
Farewell Hope, and with Hope farewell Fear
John Milton
Extol not riches then, the toil of fools, The wise man's cumbrance, if not snare, more apt To slacken virtue, and abate her edge, Than prompt her to do aught may merit praise.
John Milton
Of calling shapes, and beck'ning shadows dire, And airy tongues that syllable men's names.
John Milton
Those whom reason hath equalled, force hath made supreme
John Milton
Time is the subtle thief of youth.
John Milton
Though all the winds of doctrine were let loose to play upon the earth, so Truth be in the field, we do injuriously by licensing and prohibiting to misdoubt her strength. Let her and Falsehood grapple who ever knew Truth put to the worse, in a free and open encounter.
John Milton
Luck is the residue of design.
John Milton
Cedar, and pine, and fir, and branching palm, A sylvan scene, and as the ranks ascend Shade above shade, a woody theatre Of stateliest view.
John Milton
Where no hope is left, is left no fear.
John Milton
Who, as they sung, would take the prison'd soul And lap it in Elysium.
John Milton
