“Me miserable! Which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is hell; myself am hell;
And in the lowest deep a lower deep,
Still threat'ning to devour me, opens wide,
To which the hell I suffer seems a heaven.”
More from John Milton

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.”
“But he, though blind of sight, Despised, and thought extinguished quite, With inward eyes…”
“My rising is thy fall.”
