Additional quotes by Charles Churchill

Keep up appearances; there lies the test.
The world will give thee credit for the rest.

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.

The two extremes appear like man and wife,
Coupled together for the sake of strife.

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