Additional quotes by Charles Churchill

Grave without thought, and without feeling, gay.

But, spite of all the criticising elves,
Those who would make us feel—must feel themselves.

With curious art the brain, too finely wrought, Preys on herself, and is destroy'd by thought: Constant attention wears the active mind, Blots out our powers, and leaves a blank behind.

Thy danger chiefly lies in acting well; No crime's so great as daring to excel. - Charles Churchill
