“Authors are partial to their wit, 'tis true,
But are not critics to their judgment, too?”
― Alexander Pope, An Essay On Criticism

“All nature is but art, unknown to thee;
All chance, direction, which thou canst not see;
All discord, harmony not understood;
All partial evil, universal good.
And, spite of pride, in erring reason's spite,
One truth is clear, 'Whatever is, is right.”
― Alexander Pope, An Essay on Man

“A little Learning is a dangerous Thing.”
― Alexander Pope

“Sir, I admit your general rule,
That every poet is a fool.
But you yourself may prove to show it,
Every fool is not a poet.”
― Alexander Pope
