Quotes by John Milton
English poet, 1608–1674
John Milton defended freedom of the press in Areopagitica and served Cromwell’s republic as Latin secretary. Blind from 1652 and in danger after the Restoration, he dictated Paradise Lost (1667), the epic of the Fall of Man that stands beside Shakespeare at the summit of English poetry.
