The mind is its own place, and in itself
Can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven.
What power would hell have if those imprisoned here would not be able to dream of heaven?
The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven.
(Zihnin kendi yeri vardır ve kendi içinde cehennemi cennete, cenneti cehenneme çevirebilir.)

“O gentle Faustus, leave this damnèd art, This magic that will charm thy soul to hell And quite bereave thee of salvation. Though thou has now offended like a man, Do not persever in it like a devil. Yet, yet, thou hast an amiable soul If sin by custom grow not into nature. Then, Faustus, will repentance come too late! Then, thou art banished from the sight of heaven! No mortal can express the pains of hell! . . . For gentle son, I speak it not in wrath Or envy of thee but in tender love . . . And so have hope that this my kind rebuke, Checking thy body, may amend thy soul.”
“But Faustus’ offense can ne’er be pardoned. The serpent that tempted Eve may be saved, but not Faustus! O gentlemen, hear with patience and tremble not at my speeches . . . for which Faustus hath lost both Germany and the world, yea heaven itself—heaven, the seat of God, the throne of the blessèd, the kingdom of joy—and must remain in hell forever! Hell, O hell forever! Sweet friends, what shall become of Faustus being in hell forever?’
