Alexander Pope Quotes
3
Atheists put on false courage in the midst of their darkness and misaprehensions, like children who, when they fear to go in the dark,will sing or whistle to keep their courage.



Fools rush in where Angels fear to tread.



Histories are more full of the examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.



At every word a reputation dies.



A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.



A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring: There shallow Draughts intoxicate the Brain, And drinking largely sobers us again



Wholesome solitude, the nurse of sense!



A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.



Our proper bliss depends on what we blame.



Some praise at morning what they blame at night.



To happy convents, bosomed deep in vines, Where slumber abbots, purple as their wines.



And wine can of their wits the wise beguile, make the sage frolic, and the serious smile.



On wrongs swift vengeance waits.



A wit with dunces, and a dunce with wits.



What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn't much better than tedious disease
