Alexander Pope

To observations which ourselves we make, we grow more partial for th' observer's sake. ”

Of Manners gentle, of Affections mild; In Wit a man; Simplicity, a child. ”

Act well your part, there all the honour lies. ”

Honor and shame from no condition rise. Act well your part: there all the honor lies. ”

Know then this truth, enough for man to know virtue alone is happiness below. ”

The most positive men are the most credulous. ”

Trust not yourself, but your defects to know, make use of every friend and every foe. ”

True ease in writing comes from art, not chance, as those move easiest who have learn'd to dance. ”

Tis not enough your counsel still be true; Blunt truths more mischief than nice falsehoods do. ”

All are but parts of one stupendous whole, Whose body Nature is, and God the soul. ”
