Additional quotes by Edward Young

Much learning shows how little mortals know;
Much wealth, how little worldlings can enjoy.

Heaven’s Sovereign saves all beings but himself
That hideous sight,—a naked human heart.

The bell strikes one. We take no note of time
But from its loss.

In youth, what disappointments of our own making: in age, what disappointments from the nature of things. - Edward Young
