Prometheus Quotes

But sweeter still than this, than these, than all, Is first and passionate loveöit stands alone, Like Adam's recollection of his fall; The tree of knowledge hath been pluck'döall's known And life yields nothing further to recall Worthy of this ambrosial sin, so shown, No doubt in fable, as the unforgiven Fire which Prometheus filch'd for us from heaven.

—Rochdale
