"The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven." --- Paradise Lost, by John Milton
The poem concerns the Biblical story of the Fall of Man: the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan and their expulsion from the Garden of Eden.
"Better to reign in Hell, than to serve in Heaven."
"Solitude sometimes is best society."
"All is not lost, the unconquerable will, and study of revenge, immortal hate, and the courage never to submit or yield."
---Paradise Lost, by John Milton
