Additional quotes by Alexander Pope

And die of nothing but a rage to live

Pride where wit fails steps in to our defense, And fills up all the mighty void of sense. If once right reason drives that cloud away, Truth breaks upon us with resistless day Trust not yourself, but your defects to know, Make use of every friend — and every foe.
