Ye Gods! annihilate but space and time, And make two lovers happy. - Alexander Pope

Genius creates, and taste preserves. Taste is the good sense of genius; without taste, genius is only sublime folly.

Know, Nature’s children all divide her care; The fur that warms a monarch, warmed a bear. While man exclaims, “See all things for my use!” “See man for mine!” replies a pampered goose: And just as short of reason he must fall, Who thinks all made for one, not one for all.

Words are like Leaves; and where they most abound,
Much Fruit of Sense beneath is rarely found.
