Its funny how many people use this quote not knowing the context it was used in in the book. It was basically Satan coping with how pathetic he was

Milton is the one who popularized it but I thought the quote was older than Milton and that Milton was just the one responsible for it getting its edgy mystique. I thought it was from a Shakespeare character or even ancient or something.

This dude gets it. Reigning is a really, really harsh path, and really hard to achieve. Better to be normal and suffer than to be extraordinary and get turbo cucked by God (he can and will literally rape you if you try to be too much of a smartass).

He didn't write anything actually. He was blind and orally dictated the entire poem to his daughter..
Milton was also based. He thought governments were all illegitimate and corrupt and was wanted by the King for heresy and causing trouble, spent his final years on the run.

Oh, so I suppose you're a thug-lord in the ghetto or a crime boss in the cartels then, right? Surely you're not a...wagie, or, even worse...a NEET?

I bet you must be living in a hut in Ghana and posting on a computer built of scrap metal. Surely you're not living in a Western country...right?
