Only the Greatest and the Best Quotes from John Milton



Quote : "Of SOLOMON he led by fraud to build
His Temple right against the Temple of God"

Quote : "A shout that tore Hells Concave' and beyond
Frighted the Reign of CHAOS and old Night.
All in a moment through the gloom were seen
Ten thousand Banners rise into the Air"

Quote : "Monarch in Heav'n' till then as one secure
Sat on his Throne' upheld by old repute'
Consent or custome' and his Regal State
Put forth at full' but still his strength conceal'd'
Which tempted our attempt' and wrought our fall."

Quote : "Henceforth his might we know' and know our own"

Quote : "Peace is despaird'
For who can think Submission? Warr then' Warr
Open or understood must be resolv'd."

Quote : "Anon out of the earth a Fabrick huge
Rose like an Exhalation' with the sound
Of Dulcet Symphonies and voices sweet'
Built like a Temple' where PILASTERS round
Were set' and Doric pillars overlaid"

Quote : "As being the contrary to his high will
Whom we resist. If then his Providence
Out of our evil seek to bring forth good'
Our labour must be to pervert that end'
And out of good still to find means of evil"
