Quote by John Milton
But he that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts benighted walks under the mid-day sun; Himself is his own dungeon.
Summary
This quote suggests that someone who hides a sinister and corrupt side within them is always burdened by their own negative thoughts and actions, no matter how bright their external environment may be. They become imprisoned within their own mind, constantly tormented by their own wrongdoing. It serves as a reminder that internal darkness cannot be concealed indefinitely and will eventually catch up to the individual, causing them to suffer the consequences of their actions.
