"Henceforth I learn, that to obey is best, and love with awe the invisible King."
"For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a progeny of life in them to be as active as that soul whose progeny they are."
"And the great Emathian conqueror bid spare The house of Pindarus, when temple and tow'r Went to the ground."
"Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heav'n."
"Let us not stand in a panic fear of every stroke of wind that blows, but if God do stir up them to do us good, we do look that this should be done with all freedom."
English poet whose Paradise Lost (1667) is the canonical English epic, written while blind during the Restoration after his service to Cromwell's Commonwealth. Closely associated with Andrew Marvell (Commonwealth poet and friend who protected Milton at the Restoration). For an intellectual contrast, see King Charles II's Restoration court, the courtly, sexually-libertine, theater-reopened world of 1660s London — Milton wrote Paradise Lost as a defeated Republican; the Restoration culture around him celebrated everything his Commonwealth had banned. The cleanest 'losing side writes the masterpiece' moment in English literature — Paradise Lost's Satan is freighted with the political defeat of the regicides Milton served.
