Zitate von John Milton

When I consider how my light is spent, E're half my days, in this dark world and wide, And that one talent which is death to hide Lodged with me useless . . . Doth God exact day-labour, light denied, I fondly ask; but patience to prevent That murmur, soon replies, God doth not need Either man's work or his own gifts, who best Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best, his state Is kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed Andpost o'er land and ocean without rest: They also serve who only stand and wait.
