Alexander Pope

To be angry is to revenge the faults of others on ourselves.

No one should be ashamed to admit they are wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that they are wiser today than they were yesterday.

To err is human; to forgive, divine.

On wrongs swift vengeance waits.

A brain of feathers, and a heart of lead.

Nature and nature's laws lay hid in the night. God said, Let Newton be! and all was light!

The greatest magnifying glasses in the world are a man's own eyes when they look upon his own person.

Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.
