God surely values one person growing in virtue more than restraining ten vicious ones
Drawn from what John Milton said
What John Milton actually said
- John Milton English poet and polemicist (1608 to 1674)
And were I the chooser, a dream of well-doing should be preferred before many times as much the forcible hindrance of evil-doing. For God sure esteems the growth and completing of one virtuous person more than the restraint of ten vicious.
