Paradise Lost Revenge Quotes
In Paradise Lost, I find book two most significant. I find this book most significant because this is where Satan decides to voyage through Chaos in order to find the new world; Satan decides that he wants to seek revenge on God.

Satan talks to those in Hell and after many ideas, decides that he shall be the one to look for the new world because after all, he has the most power in Hell. A quote that shows Satan volunteering himself
