Alexander Pope
  • A little learning is a dangerous thing Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring.

  • No woman ever hates a man for being in love with her, but many a woman hate a man for being a friend to her.

  • They dream in courtship, but in wedlock wake.

  • Many men have been capable of doing a wise thing, more a cunning thing, but very few a generous thing.

  • Some old men, continually praise the time of their youth. In fact, you would almost think that there were no fools in their days, but unluckily they themselves are left as an example.
