Genius Involves Both Envy And Calumny.

Satire Or Sense, Alas! Can Sporus Feel? Who Breaks A Butterfly Upon A Wheel?

They Dream In Courtship, But In Wedlock Wake.

Who Dies In Youth And Vigour, Dies The Best.

Conceit Is To Nature What Paint Is To Beauty; It Is Not Only Needless, But It Impairs What It Would Improve.

Never Elated While One Man's Oppress'd; Never Dejected While Another's Blessed.
