Alexander Pope

“To err is human; to forgive, divine.”

“A little learning is a dangerous thing.”

“Hope springs eternal in the human breast.”

“In lazy apathy let stoics boast, their virtue fix'd: 't is fix'd as in a frost; contracted all, retiring to the breast; but strength of mind is exercise, not rest.”

“The same ambition can destroy or save, And makes a patriot as it makes a knave.”

“Trust not yourself, but your defects to know, make use of every friend and every foe.”

“Honor and shame from no condition rise; Act well your part, there all the honor lies.”

“Most women have no characters at all.”
