Quotes Of Friends And Friendship [0703]

Quotes by Alexander Pope
“Some have at first for Wits then Poets past, Turn’d Critics next, and prov’d plain fools at last. Good-nature and good-sense must ever join; To err is human, to forgive, divine. Pride, the never-failing vice of fools. For fools admire, but men of sense approve. For fools rush in where angels fear to tread. For forms of government let fools contest; What’er is best administer’d is best: For modes of faith let graceless zealots fight; He can’t be wrong whose life is in the right: In faith and hope the world will desagree, But all mankind’s concern is charity. Fired that the house reject him, “Sdeath! I’ll print it, And shame the fools. No creature smarts so little as a fool. Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer, And, without sneering, teach the rest to sneer; Willing to wound, and yet afraid to strike, Just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike; Alike reserved to blame, or to commend, A timorous foe, and a suspicious friend; Dreading e’en fools, by flatterers besieged, And so obliging, that he ne’er obliged”.
