Milton

Famous quotes containing the word milton:

    “To measure life learn thou betimes, and know
    Toward solid good what leads the nearest way;
    For other things mild Heaven a time ordains,

    And disapproves that care, though wise in show,
    That with superfluous burden loads the day,
    And, when God sends a cheerful hour, refrains.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “These two
    Imparadised in one another’s arms,
    The happier Eden, shall enjoy their fill
    Of bliss on bliss.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “He all their ammunition
    And feats of war defeats
    With plain heroic magnitude of mind
    And celestial vigour armed;”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
