"A mind not to be chang'd by place or time.  The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heav'n of Hell, a Hell of Heav'n.  Here at least we shall be free.  Here we may reign secure and in my choyce to reign is worth ambition though in Hell ...better to reign in Hell than serve in Heav'n." 
Paradise Lost, Milton
