Baron Milton

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or milton:

    I do not object to people looking at their watches when I am speaking. But I strongly object when they start shaking them to make certain they are still going.

    So saying, her rash hand in evil hour
    Forth-reaching to the Fruit, she plucked, she eat.
    Earth felt the wound, and Nature from her seat,
    Sighing through all her works, gave signs of woe
    That all was lost.
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
